Trevor Story just exploded on CB Bucknor. Never seen him this mad before. Well-deserved.
Alex Cora has been ejected...

@ScoringChanges Can confirm what you said is true. I was playing mlb the show earlier and the moment goal was to get a base hit, and a routine fly ball went over the outfielder’s head and it did not count as a base hit

There is no rule that says if a ball doesn’t touch a fielder’s glove it’s not an error.
That is patently false.
Aaron Cunningham 🇺🇸@HPBAac
The most stupid ruling in baseball… If it doesn’t hit a players glove, it’s not an error. If an outfielder totally zoo’s a ball, the scorer should rule it an error. If a pop fly in the infield lands in the middle of three infielders, the scorer should rule it an error.

@jugmano @Miggysbat I do not but I just went back and took a screen shot of the moment. Petry said something like: "Framber told him that's all right kid it was a tough play.."

@Miggysbat I also really like Framber putting his arm around McGonigle near the mound when he booted the slow tapper in the bottom of the first. Many have long said Valdez in the past would get visibly upset at teammates for miscues. Can't believe the broadcast didn't speak to this.

Holy shit. @BernieSanders and @RepCasar just introduced The Home Team Act, a bill that would “Require team owners who want to relocate to first offer local owners the chance to buy it."
This would have saved the A’s. Full stop.
It would help prevent owners from "uprooting teams that people have rooted for for generations. No more extorting taxpayers for billions." (Casar.)
It would prevent owners from "blackmailing one community against another for multi-billion-dollar subsidies." (Sanders.)
It goes without saying this is needed. “Nearly every major city in the nation [has been] asked to mortgage its future to the sports industry," @fieldofschemes has written.
If I may. The relationship between sports fans and the sports business has been broken ever since the Supreme Court gave MLB an antitrust exemption in 1922.
Multiple Supreme Court justices have criticized the ruling as “unrealistic, inconsistent, and illogical.”
The ruling stemmed from a whimsical interpretation of professional sports as a fundamentally communal, rather than capitalistic, enterprise. In practice the exemption merely grants team owners license to run their teams in the most ruthlessly capitalistic ways possible. “The major leagues” Kevin Baker has written, “remain to this day the most complete and enduring cartel in American history.”
But it hasn't ever been addressed. In America, owners get to have it both ways. They're permitted to run their businesses like robber barons. The sports industry is insulated from both government regulation and free-market competition.
Fans and cities possess no power or protection. This bill would give them some.
Hell ya.
It's also not that ridiculous at all.
A version of this law already exists in Ohio. Lawmakers passed it after Art Modell moved the Browns, to protect fans in the state from ever having to go through that kind of thing again.
Stronger versions of this sort of thing exist in Europe.
In 2025, England passed the Football Governance Act, a regulatory framework designed, in the language of the law, “to protect and promote the sustainability of English football.”
The law mandates team owners and league executives regularly consult with fan representatives on all matters relevant to fan interests. And it empowers an Independent Football Regulator (IFR) to evaluate the potential impact of all proposed changes by an owner to his or her club on fans and community members and to strike down those changes found not to be in fans’ interests. These include changes to a club’s name, crest, and, most fundamentally, its home.
Versions of this sort of thing have been batted about by US lawmakers before. Most have not been given much attention. I hope this time it's different.
It's too late to save the A’s. But I hope it passes so that no other fans have to suffer the indignities fans suffered here. So that sports work better for future fans like my sons.
