Oh, I completely missed they ARE playing a MLB game at Rickwood Field. It's on Thursday. I also completely missed that Willie Mays is still around. He's 93 so he won't be making the trip to the game, though.

I didn’t see much of it - I was in and out and getting my kid from rehearsal, but this Reggie Jackson piece is making the rounds
An important listen

Last year we had someone concerned with pitcher injuries due to the pitch clock and I said it was more the spin rates and brought up articles from 10 years ago.. here to reiterate that knowledge...

Anybody ever hear a worse version of the National Anthem than what just happened at the Home Run Derby?

I feel bad about it. It's in the Roseanne category but she was trolling. I think that this kid was giving it her all.

I wish they would just sing it instead of trying to make it their own.

Or, upon realizing that they don't really have the vocal chops they think they do to sing a notoriously hard-to-sing song live, NOT AGREE TO SING IT!
