What?
She looks ashamed. I am reminded of Clark, the anxious, pantsless cub.

Thankfully, she's wearing a skirt.

I just watched the video, without drugs.

I strongly suggest that if you're going to subject yourself to the three minute video for Tessie, you should at least be stoned. Or drunk. Or both.

Now, for the questions --

Why does Tessie enter through a side wall? Why is there a side wall?
Tessie does two things: repeatedly hurls nerf baseballs at her brother and repeatedly steals his hat. She also giggles. Why does Tessie hate her brother?
Does Tessie live in a ballpark suite? It certainly looks like her bed is in a ballpark suite.

Is their family name Lannister?

Will they name the first son Fenway?
If so, will the family sigil read WTF?

Maybe they won't go full porn. But I definitely get a pervy-brother-sister vibe. Just like this:

Act now and we'll throw in a lock of Tessie's hair with the purchase of your Fenway brick.

Yea I've never understood the hate for Wally and things like that. I think it's awesome, and like you said, anything to get kids into baseball is a good thing.
I suspect that most here probably agree with this deep down. Its (her?) existence is of no moment to me; and my kids are beyond the demographic. But they still have fond memories of Oakie and the "trash monster" at Hadlock from when they were very young, so I get it. THEIR FURRY ASSES JUST BETTER NOT BLOCK MY VIEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Come on. It's not for us, it's for kids. I'm down with anything that will get kids to like baseball more.
Agreed, and I would add that I would rather see Tessie wearing a baseball uniform like Wally rather than a "B" T-shirt and a skirt. I think it's important that both Wally and Tessie be, at the very least, athletic role models for kids (whether boys or girls).

The only thing I'm shocked about is her name is Tessie, not Sweet Caroline. The Sox must be hurting without the Dentist.

Mascots always look so creepy the first time you see them.

I guess they're going for the Captain Marvel/Marvelman family thing. Wally, Daddy Wally, Mommy Wally, now Sister Wally. I wonder if someday once they have Hillbilly Wally they'll unite to fight Young Nastyman.

I was a grown up when Wally was introduced and liked him immediately. Tessie, not so much, but I guess maybe there are girls who would not have otherwise become fans that now have something they can identify with?

I give credit to the Angels, Dodgers and Yankees for not debasing their brand with embarrassing mascots. But as JMOH said, it's for kids. I'm too old for their target demographics.
