@RobViper In our section everyone was asking the honoree Salvador Lutteroth to allow another one "una más, patrón". 🤗he is sitting not even 3 mts from us!
A reminder that Komander has been in highlight reels since he was a high-schooler in Reynosa. But at that point it wasn't a given that he'd find success elsewhere. And he remembers that.
That's his frame of reference for his career. That's always been his frame of reference.
Thank you Fernando for your dreams, your ❤️ for baseball, being part of our childhood, making us all dream too to make those dreams come true. RIP/Gracias Fernando por tus sueños, tu ❤️al béis, ser parte de nuestra niñez, hacernos soñar también para hacer esos sueños realidad.DEP
We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of former Dodgers great Fernando Valenzuela.
“Fernandomania” swept through baseball in 1981 when the 20-year old rookie sensation began the season 8-0 with a 0.50 ERA. The lefthander capped off his incredible year by winning both the NL Rookie of the Year and Cy Young Awards while helping lead Los Angeles to a World Series title.
Valenzuela pitched 17 Major League seasons, was a 6-time All-Star, and has the most wins (173) and strikeouts (2,074) of any Mexican-born pitcher.
He spent the last 22 years as a Spanish language broadcaster for the Dodgers, who retired his No. 34 in 2023.
He was 63.
I usually don't share these, but the father of one of my nephew's friends fell and is in critical condition, if you can help.
No suelo compartir estos, pero el papá de un amigo de mi sobrino se cayó y está en condición crítica, si pueden ayudar: https://t.co/5xD7RJX0dZ
@historyinmemes Astronaut Scott Kelly once smuggled a full gorilla suit aboard the International Space Station. He didn't tell anyone about it. One day, without anyone knowing, he put it on.
Pictured above is Astronaut Leland D. Melvin's official NASA portrait.
When NASA astronaut Leland Melvin was assigned to a space shuttle mission in 2008, he was told he could bring his family for the official photo shoot wearing the famous orange "pumpkin suit." They didn't specify two-legged or four-legged family members, and even though dogs were not typically allowed on the NASA base, Melvin considered his dogs part of his family.
So, Melvin brought his rescue dogs, Jake and Scout, along with a neighbor who could hold them and keep them quiet in the back of his van. "I got to the guard shack, flashed my badge, and I gunned the van and drove to the photo lab," Melvin said.
He then climbed the back stairs, where the photographer was waiting. Melvin went into the photo lab with 100 MilkBones to keep the dogs busy while he changed into his suit and came out. "They (the dogs) ran toward me, and I told the photographer to hold his finger on the shutter, and that's how the photo was born." After the photo shoot, Melvin had to change, and the MilkBones had disappeared.
"The dogs started barking, and a security guard came in and asked if there were dogs in there," Melvin said. "We said, 'No, that's the doggy screensaver!'" After he changed, he was able to quiet the dogs and leave the area.

Hi @OfficialPWG, @TKD_117 and I know that the project fans totally understand that this was the time to focus on being together. I am including you guys in my prayers and best thoughts. Love to you both and I send hugs, even though we are geographically distant.
I know a lot of you have been wondering what is going on with PWG and why there haven't been many events this year. My girlfriend has been very sick and battling an aggressive cancer since earlier this year. It's been incredibly difficult for me to focus on anything else.
