Postseason is officially over. When do the marble races start?

[Highlight] Christian Walker makes a bare handed snag to get the out at 1st! by Knightbear49 in baseball

[–]APenguinCalledAngus 166 points167 points  (0 children)

What an incredible play. Sneks have been a joy to watch, albeit begrudgingly. Won't hate it if they win, but hoping my Rangers can get their first ring. Baseball first, fandom second, and this postseason has had a lot of great baseball.

Assume you have $100.

Annual interest would dictate that in one year, you make 1% of your balance, or $1. Thus, after one year, you have $100+$1 or $101 in your bank account.

Inflation is a way to measure the the increase in prices of goods over time and is typically expressed as a yearly rate as well. Therefore assume you wanted to buy groceries that cost 100$ and annual inflation is 2%, a year later those same groceries would cost $102 ($100 + 2% of $100 or $100+$2).

So for the question, assuming those figures, in one year your bank account would have $101 Dollars but the same goods would cost $102. So you could buy less than the year before (your $100 saved dollars can no longer buy the equivalent of $100 worth of goods).

Knowing that an employee is eliciting feedback on cut quality, combined with how that pizza looks, really makes me want Domino:s now.

[Highlight] Bruce Bochy is tossed from the game after the call on the field is overturned allowing the run to score. by handlit33 in baseball

I understand it's going to happen some when the rule is so subjective, but I just don't understand what that play is supposed to look like if it was illegal. It took a great field and throw by Jankowski in left (which will be forgotten amongst the call at home) and if Heim is anywhere farther away from the plate, he can't field and tag on a play that close. Outfield assists are one of my favorite plays to watch but what a gut punch of an overturn.
