@mlbbowman Pioneer Baseball League (Indy Ball - MLB partner) two years ago used a bigger baseball for the second half of the season. It was a prototype for a proposed new ball for MLB to use in the future.
"It's kind of hard to describe."
Congrats to @kinnonlarose on his first career win as a trainer. He did it with ARTHUR JR in race 4 at @keenelandracing. @andie_biancone caught up with him after the race.
Mike Eruzione on the Team USA critics:
"Shame on you. We live in the greatest country in the world... But they don't want to talk about that. They've got to find something to bitch and complain about. Shut up and just enjoy what they did."
🔥 Dave Portnoy just WENT OFF on the Karens attacking Team USA hockey for talking to President Trump after their gold medal win — “They are INSANE!”
During his legendary two-minute rant, @stoolpresidente pointed out that this is the EXACT reaction that got Trump elected.
PORTNOY: “Anybody who has a problem with anything the men did should be checked into a mental institution.”
“They are absolute psychopaths.”
“I have no problem…people want to say, hey, maybe Donald Trump shouldn’t have made that joke in the moment, he’s trying to chum it up with the boys…you hated Trump before that joke, you hate him now, fine, you hate him.”
“But to try to throw this on the men’s hockey team, who just had the greatest moments of their life. It’s 5 minutes after the game ended.”
“The euphoria, the dopamine, they are celebrating, they’re talking to the president and you want them to be like, hold on, can’t make that joke right now in the locker room.”
“It is so stupid!”
“But a lot of the people complaining, they didn’t even watch the hockey, they didn’t even know the hockey was going on!”
“I watch most sports, I was celebrating just as hard for the women as the men. I said we took Canada and we broke their back and made them humble. We stole their sport. So I’m celebrating both of these things in real time.”
“You have people who didn’t even watch the games getting mad now!”
“They’re getting retroactively mad…it’s so stupid.”
“It’s so dumb.”
“And if you have a problem with it, you have a problem with everything.”
“And it’s this type of attitude…that’s what gets Trump elected in the first place, because people are like enough of this!”
“It’s craziness!”
“You’re mad that these guys didn’t stop Trump?!”
“And then they’re like, oh, apologize after the fact.”
“Now you want them to pick a fight with the president of the United States over nothing joke?”
“They are INSANE!”
“And I’ll stand by it…if you had a problem with the way the men’s hockey team handled it, you are a lunatic, you should go to the local insane asylum, say please give me a white jacket, I need it.”
I see so many players who absolutely love and thrive in the training atmosphere… then take a massive dumb in their pants when trying to compete.
Something needs to change training wise, both physically and mentally.
Train to compete.
Don’t compete so you can train.
The Mets are calling up 27-year-old RHP Jonathan Pintaro, league sources said. Through 42 1/3 innings in Double A this season (he was set to pitch in Triple A this week), he had a 3.40 ERA with 57 strikeouts. He made 11 starts in the minors, but is expected to offer bullpen help.
Be a good person.
Be someone who people are excited to see no matter how long since the last time you’ve seen them is.
Put smiles on others faces, bring the mood of the room up.
Just be a good person, it’s better.
