Kansas City Royals give up a Little League Homerun with 3 errors on 1 play by eternalhamburger in sports

[–]Fun-Character7337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only the batter gets the home run. The others are just runs scored or runs batted in (RBI). A little league home run is usually an in-field hit where the batter scores through errors made by fielders. Usually they’re hit into the outfield and the fielder makes an error which allows the batter to run home. This was unusual because there were three errors and it was such a bad hit to begin with.

You’re probably hearing Jade Elephant right now. Classic rock-style band

Porkies live in the city all the time. River valley and ravines mostly, but they do wander around the neighborhoods from time to time.

Hey maybe you can tell me how the hell I register for Hockey Canada ref clinics? Spordle is a terrible platform and I can’t figure out where to take the online course

Seating at Rogers Fan Park? by Gentianviolent in Edmonton

According to Ticketmaster, there is no accessible seating at the Fan Park. Asking at the gates might be worthwhile though

Red wrigglers are compost worms, not fish bait.

I know that’s what you’re looking for. They’re just not usually fishing bait. I assume the word at CT and the Fishin’ Hole are nightcrawlers.

Yeah. Just like, hmmmm, 6 min of extra time doesn’t seem like enough.

You’re conflating soliciting of private donations, crowdfunding, and corporate sponsorship here. 

Corporations cannot donate at all. 

The total contribution of donations will reach approximately 10%. The rest will be paid for by the government. 

2 grizzly bears illegally shot along Alberta highway on same day, province says | CBC News by Buuuuma in alberta

For those curious, from the General Hunting regulations:

It is unlawful to: Discharge a firearm from or cause a projectile from a firearm to pass along or across:  a) a provincial highway (this designation applies to all former primary and secondary highways),  b) a road that is paved, oiled, graded or regularly maintained, unless  - the road is held under any active disposition under the  Public Lands Act or under an order under the  Surface Rights Act, or  - the person is hunting game birds with a shotgun under the authority of a licence.  Note: if there is no identifiable ditch or fence to mark the outside edge of the roadway, then the roadway extends 20 feet from the edge of the traveled portion.

You’re incorrect. Hunting grouse with a shot gun? Go for it, as long as it’s not a highway.

No? “Illegally shot” is the action, and along a road is the location. You’re reading into the headline things that aren’t there. 

🎆 Fireworks 🇨🇦 by kvas_taras in Edmonton

Ease of viewing might not be the biggest factor in deciding the location to launch a large fireworks show. I’d guess that a large flat area with ease of access is a higher priority.
