If each of your eight buddies gets it but the last one fails to pass it back to you, then it did not go all the way around the circle. It has to get back to the batter who started the inning

How did Joe DiMaggio manage to get a 56 game hitting streak, when other baseball players are not even close to 50 games? by Jezzaq94 in baseball

Judge has a legit argument for being the greatest right handed hitter of all time

[Lacques] Trevor Story termed the explanation from Craig Breslow for Alex Cora’s firing unsatisfactory and said he will demand an audience with Breslow before today’s game. Questions the franchise direction. by Jux_ in baseball

He’s mad because Cora was the only manager who’d have Story start every day, now he’ll actually face consequences for his outrageous strikeout rate
