Buddy, if you think there’s been a more tortured fanbase in recent years than Mississippi State, I don’t know what to tell you.

[JANDY @Jandystl]

As a 10 year old, this moment turns you into the biggest Cardinal and baseball fan of all time. Probably the greatest day of my life. How can something that happened 15 years ago still give you chills?

The most “remember where you were” moment of all time

"Babe Ruth joined us in the middle of 1914, a nineteen-year-old kid.
He was a left-handed pitcher and a good one.
Ruth had never been anywhere, didn't know anything about manners or how to behave among people.
Just a big, overgrown green pea. Lord, he ate too much.
He'd stop along the road when we were travelling and order half a dozen hot dogs and as many bottles of soda pop, stuff them in one after another, give a few belches and then roar:
"Okay, boys, let's go."
Off the field he was bigger, louder, more excitable than his teammates.
Ruth used other people's toothbrushes, ran the elevator up and down, and got married to Helen Woodford, a sixteen-year-old coffee shop waitress he met on his very first day in Boston.
Everybody called him 'Baby', then just the 'Babe'.
I saw it all happen, from beginning to end. But sometimes I still can't believe what I saw:
This nineteen-year-old kid, crude, poorly educated, only lightly brushed by the social veneer we call civilization, gradually transformed into the idol of American youth and the symbol of baseball the world over.
A man loved by more people and with an intensity of feeling that perhaps has never been equalled before or since.
I saw a man transformed from a human being into something pretty close to a god. If somebody had predicted that back in 1914, he would have been thrown into a lunatic asylum."
Harry Hooper speaking of his young Red Sox teammate, Babe Ruth.

UNLV head coach Dan Mullen, who has been linked to Maryland’s job opening, on his job status:

“I’ll say this: As long as I get the support of the university and the administration and I get the support of our boosters and the support of our fan base, I really enjoy being the head coach here.”

[Barstool Sports @barstoolsports]

Brandon Woodruff was supposed to be out for the season.

He last pitched on July 4th.

On this day, God blessed me to do something that no other man on the planet has ever done. Rush for 18,355 yards.

Thank you to the village of people who helped me get there. My family, cousins, teammates, coaches, teachers, @dallascowboys, @AZCardinals, and the fans who cheered me on.

U.L. Washington (1953-2024) was born on this date. Known for the toothpick he kept in his mouth during games, Washington was a solid contributor to the Royals playoff teams from 1980-1984. Here is a complete career run of his Topps base cards.

Jeff Weaver strikes out 9 over eight innings of work in the Cardinals' 4-2 World Series-clinching win over the Tigers

[BaseballHistoryNut @nut_history]

Joe Buck giving tribute to his dad was beautiful. “We will see you tomorrow night”.

Jack Buck made the same call 20 years prior when Puckett walked it off during game 6 of the 1991 WS. Both in the 11th inning

Say what you want about Joe Buck but that call will live forever

[Jeff Passan @JeffPassan]

FINAL: Brewers 10, Rays 1

A complete emasculation. Brewers batters swatted seven consecutive hits and scored eight runs with two outs in the fifth. Brewers pitchers shut down Tampa Bay hitters all night. Milwaukee is up 3-0 and can clinch its first World Series title on Tuesday.
