In the eyes of the @FHSAA, the football game between South Walton and Freeport on Friday night meant nothing.

In the eyes of a community desperate to help its friends, family and neighbors recover from #HurricaneMichael, it meant everything.

The Texas Rangers installed a deeply controversial statue in their ballpark concourse this spring. And they aren't willing to provide answers as to why it's there.

Yikes.

I’m starting to think Disney and Google didn’t do that YouTube TV deal to spare us all from watching the Dallas Cowboys attempt to play defense.

FREDDIE FREEMAN WALK-OFF HOME RUN IN THE 18TH INNING! #WORLDSERIES

[Sam Grubenhoff @SamGrubenhoff]

Incredible. Goodnight.

[Sam Grubenhoff @SamGrubenhoff]

Will Klein is the greatest pitcher in the history of the 18th inning

[Sam Grubenhoff @SamGrubenhoff]

I turned on Game 3 in the ninth inning to “watch the end.” That was two hours ago.

[Sam Grubenhoff @SamGrubenhoff]

I am begging AL MVP voters not to mess this up.

CAL.
RALEIGH.
60.

Covering @CHShoops850's run to the state title in 2019 was some of the most fun I had at the Daily News. That was a tight group that pulled off one improbable win after another, and I'm really grateful Greg trusted me to tell their stories.

@Evan_P_Grant It wouldn’t be baseball season without your hard work and wry wit, Evan. Thanks for all you do!

Been out of the game for a hot minute, but I wanted to jump back in to say “Across the River” by @kentbabb is an incredible, moving work of writing, reporting and storytelling. Can’t recommend it enough.

He leaves us with a lasting reminder: to work hard and find joy in this great game, and this extraordinary life. Say Hey, Willie Mays. The best there ever was. 💐

[Sam Grubenhoff @SamGrubenhoff]

Absolutely devastating. A Giant in every sense. Rest easy, Mr. Mays.

[MLB @MLB]

We are heartbroken to learn of the passing of Hall of Famer Willie Mays, one of the most exciting all-around players in the history of our sport.

Mays was a two-time MVP, 24-time All-Star, 12-time Gold Glove Award winner, and a recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

In commemoration of "The Catch" as perhaps the most famous play in the history of the Fall Classic, the World Series MVP Award was named in his honor in 2017.

Mays was 93 years old.

@SethSnwfdn @nicevillehs @CaptWesNelson That was a good trip. Postgame Fuzzy's in Orlando, a random lawn art emporium and title game for the ages!
