Can we see what the prediction markets have to say now about who is most likely to win this game?

All the Rays have to do to get back in this game is the baseball equivalent of climbing Eversett. Then summit K-9 immediately after. Then run a sub-three hour marathon.

8 2-out runs are most in an inning in World Series history and 2nd-most in any postseason inning

There’s libraries that are making more noise than Tampa Bay’s offense.

🎵Simpson, Chandler Simpson he’s the greatest guy who plays baseball From the, town of Tampa He’s about to hit a left-field wall 🎵

For all the talk about how great and wonderful small ball is, neither Smoltz nor Davis is talking about how many guys are getting thrown out on the bases.

Next time I’m at a baseball game, I’m cheering every pickoff attempt just to be different.

Congratulations to Francisco Lindor of the New York Mets, winner of the 2026 Roberto Clemente Award presented by Capital One! 👏

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

Did you know Jacob Misiorowski is only going to get better? I know because John Smoltz has mentioned it three times this game, and we’re only in the third inning.

Been hearing rumors about the Yankees being up for sale aince George died. If Hal and company haven’t pulled the trigger yet, I have a hard time seeing them ever doing so. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

Unless MLB goes on a 60s-like expansion feast where the number of teams in each league increases by roughly half, this is realistically the last time this will ever happen for the foreseeable future.

Like being inside a living football museum.

Baseball owners: “We need a salary cap for competitive balance.” Also, baseball: “Three of the four LCS teams rank in the bottom third in terms of market size and overall team value.”

“The music is an essential part of any Grand Theft Auto game, and fans are going to love robbing banks and dodging cop cars while blasting classic pop songs like ‘Short People’ and ‘Political Science.’” — Caleb Grothoff, lead developer

There’s a non-zero chance those old women died because they didn’t know how to sail.

The Misiorowski whiff rate on his fastball: During the season: 40.2 percent Tonight: 18.5 percent Amazing job by the Dodgers tonight to not get beat on one of baseball's most unhittable pitches.

Judging by this game, the answer to this question is an emphatic no he can’t.

I feel like Jeff from that Allstate ad is kind of a creep.

So many things wrong with this "deal," but also: it's not a "massive" amount. If we actually receive 1,800,000 tons of diesel from Russia, that's equivalent to: * 3.3 days of US consumption, or * 10 days of US *exports*. It's a drop in the bucket. We send more than that overseas every two weeks.

Arizona State’s inclusion on this list is so weird. It’s like someone saying their favorite musical acts are The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, Prince, and Alvin and The Chipmunks.

Had no idea that Coca-Cola’s deal as the official soft drink of Polar Bears was up.

Reasons the Yankees are winning according to the broadcast booth: 1. Not trying to do too much. 2. Going up there and executing. 3. Doing the little things.

Most career pick 6s: Matthew Stafford 33 Brett Favre 32

Are people who don’t listen to modern pop country better than people who do listen to modern pop country? Yes, obviously.

With the MLB playoff field now set, it's time once again for my annual "Multiple Shots at a Ring" All-Stars. Here they are (unless I missed someone), sorted by Fangraphs' World Series chances.

Ignoring strike years/2020... .316 average is lowest to lead the majors ever 45 homers is lowest total to lead the majors since 2014 116 RBI is lowest total to lead the majors since 2014 119 runs scored is lowest total to lead majors since 2014 40 doubles is lowest total to lead majors since 1972

Wait, Denver has a white cornerback? What in the Jason Sehorn is this?

Patriots and Cowboys lost.

The debut of the new Rays uniforms 🔥

Checked swings has NEVER been defined in 150 years of baseball Strike zone HAS been defined as stance-based for 140 years, changed to height: no one says boo If/when Checked Swings are defined at MLB level, the "controversy" will last an entire off-season, plus one week of play

Sad news to report. You may not know the name, Jeff Scott. But you should. He's the man who once wrote the script for 450 consecutive episodes of the legendary This Week in Baseball. He passed away over the weekend. Read more about his memorable baseball life here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Sc...

Cleared the first leaf out of my windshield today. Summer is over.
