Baseball wedge issue. Is the fence there to mark where a ‘home run’ is, and the point of baseball is to cultivate/generate ‘home runs’ as much as possible?
Or is the fence a necessary-evil because an infinite spatial quadrant (the platonic form of a baseball field) can’t be built in practice? And the point of baseball is for the batter to hit ‘em where they ain’t? And if a fielder *can* get there (fence or not) then the batter didn’t do that?
A: It’s the latter.

I will die on the hill if you end up on the other side of the wall with the ball, that should be a HR. you didn’t prevent the ball from clearing the fence

One new wrinkle at Fenway Fest this year is that the Sox will be announcing the team's 2026 Hall of Fame class. The club's Hall of Fame inducts a new class every two years. Anyone have any guesses who gets in this year?

Just one of the most insane plays you’re ever going to see in a baseball game. From almost a grand slam to an 8-6-2 double play. WOW.

@tomshattuck @AliceShattuck I just listened to your latest All You Can Eat. Great show. Love “Nostalgia.” I always end up with a surplus of sauces from Taco Bell and Chinese restaurants that I refuse to throw away. Have you heard anything about the return of The Ground Round?

Lots of chatter about high-priced green fees recently (rightfully so) - but quality #golf isn’t always expensive.
Here’s my ‘Most Intriguing Under $100’ (among U.S. courses I’ve played/want to play).
If I’m missing something good, put me on.
List = Max Green Fee, Walking Rate

Listening to Aikman that dude is so jealous of Patrick he can’t call the game objectively.

@JackCarrUSA @stavridisj I thoroughly enjoyed this interview. As you mentioned, the World War II Museum is a great take. If you're ever in Massachusetts, take the time to check out the American Heritage Museum. The history is great. americanheritagemuseum.org

Look, if you don’t like the Trump agenda, the GOP Senate is going to disappoint you a lot. But we’ve heard a lot of doomsaying from Trump opponents insisting we’re witnessing the first step to his impending dictatorship, and that congressional Republicans are a bunch of spineless lickspittles who would gladly use the U.S. Constitution as kindling just to see the warm glow reflected in the eyes of Trump.
Eh, not so much, apparently. There are some lines Senate Republicans aren’t willing to cross.
