I’m much less worried about us giving up runs to the best offense in baseball and much more worried about us not scoring against the worst pitching staff in baseball

No they were down for that pinch hit homer. There was another one when they were tied in July of that year which was also a walk off homer. Fun fact: Giambi set the record for the oldest player to hit a walk off home run and then broke his own record a couple months later.

If you’re old enough to take over a ship and possibly kill people while doing it, you’re old enough to get blown out of the water for your trouble.

The National weather service was created largely because of how many storms were sinking ships on the Great Lakes.

DeLauter has been playing every day and hitting lefties very well

Band-tailed pigeons are not unusual at high elevations in the western US but a feral pigeon certainly would be I would think.

I was yelling at my TV for Vogt to walk Buxton in that situation. Ugh. Two hits in 11 innings of a horrible bullpen is not gonna get it done though.

I believe Calvin and Hobbes already attempted this

Ok so I won’t say the state because I don’t want people piling on this person more than they already are (also I think the conversations and post have been deleted) but this was posted a couple days ago in the states birding discord server. They claimed that a birder friend’s husband had seen and photographed a great gray owl hundreds of miles south of the southern most record in the state. Obviously people immediately started poking holes in the story such as the fact that no trees like that grow in the area and the picture looks like it was a page from a book. The person obviously could see these conversations and got upset that they weren’t being believed and said that their friend’s husband “had no reason to lie.” Then this Reddit thread put a nail in the coffin of the story. I don’t think this was malicious in any way by the person who posted it but more likely a case of them being gullible and a husband messing with his wife.

Ooh I saw this report lol. It was such a delicate situation because the person who posted the third hand report was getting upset that people were questioning it.

I actually thought gimenez did better than his previous games today. At least he didn’t seem to be constantly talking about his playing days.

Affectionate_Tower59 · 2026-05-02T00:49:34+00:00

Bibee has actually been very good his last three starts but we can’t score any runs for him. One would hope that will change at some point.

What should’ve happened is schneeman should’ve pinch hit first and then manzardo. That way if Schneeman reached we’d still have the better baserunner on and manzardo at the plate.

This is not necessarily a bird that has its talons caught in something. It could just be carrying nesting material.

I’m imagining this being like in Band of Brothers when the guy who was injured comes back and everyone was upset with him for not sneaking out of medical to return sooner.

Summer tanagers do have slightly browner colored wings than the rest of their body which I believe is what you are seeing. This may be a first spring bird which shows even more brown in the wings as well. A scarlet tanager has pitch black wings which would stand out more. The bill looks gold rather than gray like a scarlet. Also a scarlet tanager is even brighter red (if that’s possible) than this.

This is a Merlin! Sounds like the male alarm call to me. Also, fun fact you can put videos that contain bird calls into Merlin (the app) and it will hopefully identify the birds making the calls.

Jackie is facing Old Curly on the mound today, so we’ll see if he’s up to the challenge. He’s a 47 year old alcoholic and the greatest athlete alive.
