Wrigley right now reminds me of the Mizzou-Vandy game this spring where no one knew if a ball hit in the 9th inning with the game on the line was a HR or a ground-rule double.

[11Point7 College Baseball @11point7]

THIS IS WILD.

Vanderbilt hit, according to them a go ahead HR, according to Mizzou a ground-rule double. According to the trackman data, it was a HR, but umpires after review rule it a ground rule double. Game suspended, to be resumed tomorrow.

Things got a bit messy after Cup Series qualifying today. Getting back to my car in the infield was quite the adventure. Hope these fans get to enjoy a race tonight after the long wait!

[Vincent Johnson @VincentDJohnson]

Happy 250th Birthday America!
From the mud & beer soaked infield of the Chicagoland Speedway. There's nothing quite like a rain delay at @NASCAR. As fans wait for the Cuervo 300 to start in Joliet, Illinois.
