I love this game.
This.
World Baseball Classic, let’s goooo
Yeah, we bought it for its 5,000# towing capacity but haven't bought a trailer yet. It's a dream rolling down the road. Mileage is weather dependent. Took it across the US this winter during a really cold spell into 50mph headwinds. Had to stop at every exit to recharge...

That's a shame. Just topping off the tank of our Kia EV9 in the garage for about $0.11 / kW. That'll be about 300 miles of city driving for $10 or 105 mpg for a lightning fast, incredibly smooth 6,000# tank.
Who is keeping score? I'd love to see the number court cases lost by this administration, by department, compared to the past 5-10 administrations.
Big issue in an otherwise happy fam. Wife likes NY deli creamy cheesecake. I live for Käsekuchen. Once I was teaching English in Germany and the hotel had it on the buffet line every morning. I may or may not have had it every day.
I had an incredible time last summer working with the Alfeld Greenhorns #Baseball Club in Germany. I was disappointed that my #German didn't return as much as desired, but working with the teams was the experience of a lifetime. Great times on & off the diamond with new friends who love this game.
I was impressed by all the movement WBC pitchers have on the pitches. I super-Googled it and the WBC balls do have higher seams like I thought might be the case. Real Whiffle Ball stuff out there.
The Lancet is an international medical journal published in London. The top "US medical journal" is arguably the NEJM while some might say JAMA. Posts like this scream out, "I don't know anything about this topic."
Are the stats directly comparable to MLB figures? Or standardized for cmparison?

The WBC is awesome! Let’s go O’s!
I’m sorry but if the Brazil catcher positions himself correctly, they nail him at the plate. You can’t catch the ball behind the plate and reach forward with the tag. The LF did his job, the C did not. WBC BRA-MEX
Not only is it great to have baseball on now, you get to root for guys who play on MLB teams you can't possibly root for. But not Harper. Ever. I am still the National President of the Papelbon Fan Club.
Just did that. Agree.
The WBC has been living up to the hype 🔥

Wait, schmait...
The Astrodome grounds crew didn't have to work much around the plate when Ryan or Richards was on the bump. Weren't many hitters really digging in at the plate. 🤪
A brown and white dog with a concerned look sits up straight and looks into the camera. On the floor next to them is an animal skin rug with matching coloring to theirs.
sometimes all it takes is a little subtle messaging to improve your pet’s behavior
Just have a smile on my face.
And “Thanks, Bryce.”
The Brazilian catcher is having a tough first inning. Looks like he’s using a pancake training glove one-handed out there. This USABRA WBC game is gonna be 100-0.
Enjoying the heck out of the #WBC #PURCOL game right now. The stadium in San Juan is ELECTRIC!! PUR 3 : COL 0 with PUR still up in the T5. Let’s Play Two!!!
Many thanks to Bridgewater State University for hosting the Women's Baseball Heritage Trail this week. The women's baseball collection there is outstanding and I learned so much. Baseball research friends, please make a point to visit them and support their women's sports related projects.
