ONE YEAR AGO TODAY: Charlie on his way to work on Juneteenth


Breaking: ICE agents used a clever disguise as city workers to get an illegal alien to come out and move his car. Once he came outside, 8 agents jumped out and detained him. 🤣





🚨CYCLE SCORING ALERT🚨 Tons of folks sent this one in from the @Phillies and @Mets game, with Bryce Harper completing the cycle with this fifth inning triple. I believe this was scored correctly as a triple. This falls under Rule 9.06; Determining the Value of Base Hits. The key is Harper never slowed down at all and was going for third the whole time. One of the things the scorer has to determine is whether or not Harper went to third on the throw or not. He obviously was going for third regardless, and the fact that he would have been out is inconsequential here. The OS Manual states this: “Had the bases been empty, would the batter-runner have attempted to advance the extra base? If not, the value of the base hit should not include the additional base.” The answer on this one is yes, Harper would have ATTEMPTED to advance. Doesn’t say if he would have been safe. Since he would have attempted this regardless of the throw home, he was, IMHO, correctly credited with a triple.


Bryce Harper had pretty strong thoughts on his aggressive baserunning, which allowed him to hit for the cycle Saturday.


BRYCE HARPER TRIPLES TO COMPLETE THE CYCLE!
