RIP to one of the TV industry greats. There were so many nights where I sat in front of the television thinking I need to start buying storage units on the side.

"After surfacing and getting the submarine settled, one of the first tasks they undertook was the organization of the very first baseball game at the North Pole.
But this was no ordinary game!
The field was aligned with the pitcher’s mound as close to the North Pole as possible, which set up some really crazy situations:
If a batter hit a 'home run,' he would circumnavigate the world as he rounded the bases;
If the ball was hit into right field, it flew into 'tomorrow;'
A ball hit to left field remained in the same day, but if it was then thrown to first base it entered “tomorrow”;
If the right fielder caught a fly ball, he caught it the next day which meant the batter could not be considered out for another twenty-four hours, but if the ball was caught as a line drive and thrown back towards second or third base, it was being thrown back into yesterday."
