In 1980 when George Brett hit .390, he hit 24 home runs and struck out only 22 times. It was completely ridiculous.

Joey Votto on calling time to try to break up Roy Halladay’s no-hitter in the 2010 NLDS — and running into him at the All-Star Game the next year:

“Hey, remember when you called time out twice during that at-bat?

Alex Gordon isn't going to get elected to the Hall of Fame. But we're glad to see him on this year's ballot. As @marksimon.bsky.social notes, there were a lot of things that Gordon was good at defensively.

Devoting $1.8 BILLION of public money to an NFL stadium (60% of $3 billion) is indefensible public policy.
Kansas City Chiefs are moving to Kansas. Details of stadium package announced
The news came shortly before a council of top Kansas lawmakers voted unanimously to approve an incentive package that would allow the Kansas City Chiefs to move to Kansas.
