House Robbery In Suburbia Goes Terribly Wrong.
Why was the baseball bat in the top cabinet in the kitchen?

Shepard Smith: Yet again in America
Why is the Republican party so afraid of the NRA? How much money can they donate and lobby? Why can't the anti-gun side mobilize and match the donation like 2~3 folds and dangle the money to the GOP to silence the NRA? Of course it's a gross oversimplification of the issues (NRA can go "mental" and threaten any Republican's families, etc. if I go all cynical), but money is a good start...
Ban assault rifle, raise the price of guns. the manufacturers still make as much money.
Amendment right? Well what about my right to own a nuclear baseball? Anthrax and Agent Orange? It isn't it my right to have them? Stop with the BS amendment right argument.
Center fielder first position player to ever record a save
@moonsammy No, it's not the first time a non pitcher was on the mound when there team won. It's the first time a non pitcher was credited with a pitching "Save". His team had a two run lead when he entered the game as a pitcher. The previous pitcher was awarded the "Win".
http://m.mlb.com/glossary/standard-stats/save
There are plenty of position players who have recorded a win as a pitcher. You can find them among this list. https://www.baseball-reference.com/friv/fieldPitch.shtml
(edit) As a side note, first time since 1969 when the save stat was made official.
Not just won, but went from either a negative or neutral position to win.
IE. if it's happened before, the team was already ahead when the non-pitcher took over in relief.

Neil Armstrong's last words on the moon. "Good luck Mr. Gorsky"
It seems when Apollo Mission Astronaut, Neil Armstrong first walked on the moon, he not only gave his famous "One Small Step for Man, One Giant Leap for Mankind" statement, but followed it by several remarks - usual com traffic between him, the other astronauts and Mission Control.
Before he reentered the lander, he made the enigmatic remark, "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky." Many people at NASA thought it was a casual remark concerning some rival Soviet Cosmonaut, however, upon checking, there was no Gorsky in either the Russian nor American space programs.
Over the years many people have questioned him as to what the "Good luck, Mr. Gorsky" statement meant. A few months ago, (July 5th, 1995, Tampa Bay FL) while answering questions following a speech, a reporter brought up the 26 year old question to Armstrong. He finally responded. It seems that Mr. Gorsky had finally died and so Neil Armstrong felt he could answer the question.
When he was a kid, he was playing baseball with his brother in the backyard. His brother hit a fly ball which landed in front of his neighbors' bedroom window. His neighbors were Mr and Mrs. Gorksy. As he leaned down to pick it up, he heard Mrs. Gorsky shouting at Mr. Gorsky. "Oral sex, oral sex you want? You'll get oral sex when the kid next door walks on the moon!"
EA - They're not loot boxes, they're surprise mechanics
She's absolutely correct that the random collectible toy thing has been around for a long time. Baseball cards certainly count, or even the toys found in cereal boxes years ago. The difference is that physical toys can be traded with friends, or donated, or resold - they're a tangible good with actual, if minimal, value.
Loot in video games to me is comparable less to "surprise" toys, and more to... hrm. Maybe... playing bingo for non-transferable airfare tickets? There's a real, "fun" prize, that has value for the winner but only the winner, and only in a limited context, and if you don't win you leave with nothing of any value. Note that bingo along those lines would be considered gambling in most contexts (know it would be where I live, at any rate...).

Don't remember Robotech.
I remember being a Vulcan. I wanted to be Spock. I started to stand with my hands behind my back. Tried not smile. Learned to lift one eyebrow.
Kids. It was a great time in spite having to learn things the hard way.
I got into racing. I felt the need to follow a sport so I could be a part of something, I guess. I liked football but didn't care to play it. Baseball was too boring for me to follow for any length of time. I decided I would follow NASCAR . That was the ticket for me. Been to Daytona several times out of convenience of location. Been to Texas Motor Speedway twice, Atlanta, Talladega twice, Las Vegas, Dover and Charlotte. Part of why I have hearing loss. I love to drive/travel. I haven't owned a car since '95 but have always managed to get around somehow.
EDIT: in case you were wondering, no, I don't have a southern accent. Not that there is "anything wrong" with that.
I've always had a thing for Japanese culture. They seemed as close to Vulcans as humans were likely to get (when I was little at least), and I respect that immensely. That, and I wanted to be a race car driver when I grew up....still do.
How about Robotech? I watched it daily when it aired.
Ooops
I wonder if he had anything to do with this brainstorm.

Here’s What Happened When Prisoners Started Vaping (HBO)
Cry me a river.
I couldn't care less if the guy that just stole my car stereo has a hard time in jail.
IMO minor crime should be treated like baseball. You get 3 strikes and then you're out. If you're not stealing for food you're a selfish scumbag and society would be far better off without you.
(and of course violent crime has no place in modern society at all, and I know there's cases which aren't black and white, but many cases are, video evidence and everything, if we at least got rid of the people who without a doubt violently assaulted someone, then we'd be better off...
You only have to watch a few videos on the Active Self Protection channel to see how many people are just straight up scum, and it's little wonder the police in the US are trigger happy - there's piles of videos where people just straight out fire at the police when asked to show their license)

Historically Bizarre US Open 2018 Highlights
Come on @newtboy
She was being coached, she did smash her racket, she did run her mouth.
Not every instance of coaching gets caught. Unlucky or bad execution.
Most smashings of rackets are punished.
Do men really get away with that level of verbal abuse?
I believe she in fact got a lot of leeway because she is Serena, black and at home.
Preferably she should have gotten a sterner warning first to shut up or be hit with a game penalty.
She would be out of a basketball game, football game, golf tournament. In baseball and hockey she would be mocked for being a crybaby.
Men should not get away with this childish behaviour either.
Mic'd up ump dealing with a pissed off manager
That's kind of cute how the fat old managers also wear little baseball uniforms, just in case they're asked to play.
Mic'd up ump dealing with a pissed off manager
Watching baseball and being a fan for over 35+ yrs. i believe most of them are. Most play out the same and are for pretty trivial things. This one had quite a bit behind it. It was the real deal.
It's funny, but I always sort of assumed the manager / ump screaming matches were just a kind of pro-forma show, like one of the unwritten rules of baseball.
This argument wasn't at all like I was expecting.
