The first 10,000 or so images from the @sabr - Rucker Archive are now available. This includes complete or substantially complete cataloging of Aaron, Ruth, Cobb, Robinson, Dihigo, Clemente, Williams, Mantle, and Mays.

Not my work, but an interesting dataset given Messi is 4-8 from the spot in the WC. https://t.co/DZz4LZg9Sh

@tangotiger But is that the rule? e.g. If Dominguez taps his head and says something, but the umpire only hears him, does it make any difference?

[Scott Bush @scott_bush]

@tangotiger It was quiet in TB last night, but it wouldn't be fair to assume an umpire could hear a player challenge a pitch during any given game.

[Scott Bush @scott_bush]

@tangotiger I'm asking what the literal rule is. From what I've found, the official signal is tapping your head. If that's the case, part of the umpire's job is maintaining a line of sight over the C, P, and batter for the two seconds following a pitch.

It’s disturbing to see Thomas Frank has body-snatched Mauricio Pochettino.

Maximum recognition.

Max Meyer has earned his first career All-Star selection.

@MattDeanGuy @TheCWtwincities @StPaulSaints Grounds crew crushed it with those mow lines. Wowza

[Scott Bush @scott_bush]

And people claimed it was a bogus award given to a tyrant.

If the FIFA Peace Prize means anything, that red card better be rescinded

"But the replay systems are more accurate!"

If you want to be on the side of a system that requires the official to stop the game for five minutes while he consults a video sync'd with a sensor in the ball to see if someone got a touch, that's your prerogative.

[Scott Bush @scott_bush]

Since we are yet again engaged with a VAR-troversy, a reminder that we've chosen this path. Most replay is aesthetically dissatisfactory and we've allowed high-profile officiating mistakes to outweigh the simple joy of athletic competition.

[Scott Bush @scott_bush]

Replay - in all sports - is not so much a slippery slope as it is a super highway to the demand for 100% accuracy AND the instant gratification of said accuracy. I might actually prefer the "my team was robbed" life.

Perisic!!!!

As pretty much completely expected ... pitchers are using ABS challenges less as the season's gone on. I don't think it'll ever truly zero out, but it'll get close.

@rgroves11 @tangotiger That makes a great deal of sense. Not nearly as many memories of players with <10 career WAR.

@jacklambert__ @tangotiger Big pattern holds! Thanks for sharing!
