Good news: The dipshit has been banned for the rest of the season. They should do it for life, but probably need the ticket money out of him each season.

Just caught that ...

Grow a set and use your hands, dude. Kids wearing gloves, love it. Grown men, sissies and living out their weird youthful dreams.

Here's another that gets me wondering, "would I have..."

I'd love to know if he talks to his 3rd base coach before this play. Our runners reactions here are coached? Instinct just to pick up the ball?

I know this would result in my being out. Seeing the overall picture at that minute?

This is a bit on the absurd side of things.

That ball is in play. - FlatEarthersUnited.

Watching Dodgers-Brewers over lunch. Holy cow, I’m a half decent lip reader, but the Brewers manager leaves nothing but scorched earth with his top step running commentary.

Our guy DeBoer was at the game the other night…

75% of the crowd was giving that kid heck. I was cheering him on big time. What a snag, and you don't get that chance often so you take it.

They mentioned four times the homerun counted so everyone would shut up, but a few around us thought it was so awesome like I did.

Yes, All Star Game Home Run Derby. Great stuff.

Not sure what to think about this one. Loved the Field of Dreams games in Iowa. Loved the game last summer at Rickwood. This one… feels a tad too gimmicky for my tastes, but that’s just me.

...22 yr old rookie. Dayum!

Good on ya!

Tough to tell…

Tough to tell…

On that note. I caught this last night and finally found the video. "Tough to tell?" He's in the box over 10 seconds before the ball passes the plate. Just weird.

Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg has died after battling cancer

CHICAGO (AP) — Ryne Sandberg, a Hall of Fame second baseman who became one of baseball’s best all-around players while starring for the Chicago Cubs, has died. He was 65.

Sandberg was surrounded by his family when he died at his home on Monday, according to the team.

Sandberg announced in January 2024 that he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He had chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and then said in August 2024 that he was cancer-free.

But he posted on Instagram on Dec. 10 that his cancer had returned and spread to other organs. He announced this month that he was still fighting, while “looking forward to making the most of every day with my loving family and friends.”
