There’s a very severe asterisk where you’d have to be out of your goddamn mind to pull a guy that’s faced the minimum from the World Series until like five years ago

Robert Gasser of the @Brewers is the second pitcher in World Series history to finish a start of 6.0 or more innings having faced the minimum number of batters. The other was Don Larsen in his 1956 perfect game. 🐦 https://x.com/OptaSTATS/status/2114907328927711261

I got distracted by the affordability agenda :(

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

"I want a Mayor that hoops" the unwashed masses say, before learning he might inconvenience some cops a couple times

Larry Sherry led the Dodgers with 12⅔ innings in the 1959 World Series, and won MVP with two wins and two (retroactive) saves Starters Roger Craig & Johnny Podres were tied second at 9⅓ IP with two starts each (Koufax was at 9 IP with a start and relief app.)

I'm going to safely assume no pitcher has lead a team in postseason relief innings without getting a start. Misiowrowski is at 13 and Henderson is at 12

Most consecutive scoreless innings within a postseason, relievers: 2016 Andrew Miller: 16 2026 Aaron Ashby: 15 2/3 *active 1984 Andy Hawkins: 15 1/3 1981 Goose Gossage: 14 1/3 (entire postseason run) 1972 Tom Hall: 14 1/3 h/t @EliasSports

Never mind, farming all your tasks off to Claude is good

This Halloweekend kicks off the most wonderful time of the year, with many other holidays and festivities to come. But are your planning and execution skills up to par? https://cnn.it/4eTzGDQ

Yes, true social justice is to give the world over to the people who have expressed nothing but disdain for human beings, who have exploited labor to extreme degrees, and who have made it clear, over and over, that their goal is to have ownership over human life and work. bsky.app/profile/dame...

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

Did no one notice the WNBA calendar had slipped into the NBA calendar? Because this is going to come up again if it does and you need a better plan than "hope a private equitity dipshit loses a bunch of revenue out of the goodness of his heart"

"Wow, look at Taylor Walls bunt, that's how the game should be played". They're doing that because Taylor Walls can't hit and the only reason he's playing is the guy that should be there is never getting back in the country

I am not endorsing the digital wife framing. Let that be clear. But wanting to smooth out the stupid administrative stuff involved in parenting gets framed as “well I just care about my kids, unlike you” and that seems nuts

Amanda Katz@katzish.bsky.social

It’s hard to decide what part of this story on Marissa Mayer’s new startup is most loathsome, but this “women need a wife or, in other words, a digital servant” construction makes me want to flip over an actual table www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/s...

And yes, I know that an example she used of stupid bureaucracy is “naming things that are special about my kid”, which is very bad, but so much parenting is spending time on your computer, by yourself, to schedule meetings that also don’t involve your kids directly

Now the issues come up like “what if this does work” and “what if this does work so well that everyone uses it and it turns everything into Ticketmaster”, but “something that can handle my kids calendar and paperwork” is not a sign you hate your children
