How is that not a foul ball?

That slowmo replay on the broadcast was extremely definitive, you see it hit the bat, bounce it up because his hand was off of the bat, then the ball went down into his hand????

Baseball

Two consecutive BlueSky posts—first says “how good is this?” and second says “this is excruciating.”

baseball is the best preparation for death because it does not come with a clock that tells you when your suffering will end one way or the other

Gods I'm so glad we didn't go to a game 5

Pretty sure anyone who's a Mariners or Tigers fan needs a wellness check

I mean we already have Andres + Ernie + Barger + Schneider to cover the non-vlad positions, do we really need a 6th infielder who can't hit and doesn't seem like he can field under pressure either?

There's a lot to criticize about Toronto (waves hand broadly at my life's sad work) but like 50% of of it just people who don't like big cities & don't want to admit it.

New polling confirms exactly what you'd expect: Canadians want the federal government to maintain or even expand support for women and 2SLGBTQIA+ people - not slash it.

Let's make sure the Prime Minister knows where Canadians stand: www.momentumcanada.net/budget

The Jays don't strike out, but they didn't strike out last year either and they weren't very good.
