There are only two players in MLB history with 400+ HR, 200+ SB, and an OPS+ above 160:

Barry Bonds

Happy 35th birthday to one of the greatest talents the game has ever seen!

[MLB @MLB]

When Aroldis Chapman stunned Manny Machado with a painted 104.7 MPH fastball 😳

All they could do was smile 😂

[Eugene DePasquale @DePasqualePA]

Congrats Chase and what a team that was!

[Philadelphia Phillies @Phillies]

For everything you gave this city

For everything you gave these fans

For setting an example every single day

Thank you, Chase

Hot take of the night. @MLB ABS balls-strikes replay has made the umpires better. Amazing how rarely they miss. Especially when these guys are throwing 90+ sinkers!

So Trump started a war of choice and now Iran gets to tax us? And we are all stuck with Trump’s crappy economy!

[The Hormuz Report @HormuzReport]

BREAKING: A senior Iranian official has confirmed that Iran will impose transit fees of 5% to 7% of cargo value on ships using the Strait of Hormuz—worth roughly $100 billion annually at pre-war traffic levels—with Chinese vessels exempt under the drafted deal, according to Reuters.

At 7%, the toll would generate approximately $385 million per day. For a single VLCC carrying 2 million barrels of crude, the fee would be roughly $11 million. With almost no cost of collection, about 97% would be pure profit.

The scale is staggering. The Strait would become about as profitable as Alphabet ($132B in 2025), Nvidia ($120B FY2026), Apple and Microsoft (both just crossed $100B), and Saudi Aramco ($105B). It would represent 15–20 times the Suez Canal's all-time peak revenue.

For Iran, this would exceed a third of the country's GDP—without pumping a barrel.

When @DePasqualePA became Chair of @PADemParty last year, he promised to make voter registration priority #1.

Since then, Democrats have out-gained Republicans for 10 consecutive months.

Between August 2025 and August 2026, Dems added 35,244 voters. The GOP gained only 3,537.

ICYMI: Emails obtained by @SpotlightPA show Dave Sunday’s office coordinating behind the scenes with extreme anti-abortion activists who wanted him to go to court to restrict abortion access.

Sunday is using his office to sell out Pennsylvanians’ freedoms.

So Trump bankrupted 8 companies including a casino and now he is bankrupting the country.

Absolutely insane stat: The U.S. has added $450 billion to the national debt since July 1. That’s over $15 billion a day.

25 million people, mainly seniors, count on Medicare Part D to afford their prescriptions. Donald Trump is putting their health on the line by ending the program. And the PA Republican Congressional delegation goes along with this!
