All tickets from tonight’s postponed game will be valid for the rescheduled game on August 31.
Strider was transferred to the 60-day IL today. This doesn't change his timeline. There was never any reason to think he might return before the second half of August.
A city worker cleaning up after a Tartan Army party said around 2,000 fans had been drinking and having fun... but left the area so clean he didn't even need help tidying up.
Party hard. Bring the atmosphere. Make pals with the locals. Leave no mess behind 🏴
Weiss said Acuña is a “long way” from returning. Because the hamstring strain is in the same spot, the Braves will be more cautious than they were when Acuña missed nearly three weeks with the previous strain
Anthony Bourdain once said RATATOUILLE is the best food movie of all time.
“The best restaurant movie ever made, the best chef movie. The tiny details are astonishing:
•The faded burns on the cooks’ wrists.
•The ‘personal histories’ of the cooks.
•The attention paid to the food.
•And the Anton Ego ratatouille epiphany hit me like a punch in the chest–literally breathtaking.
I saw it in a theater entirely full with adults–and the reaction to that moment was what movie making was once–a long time ago–all about:
Audible surprise, delight, awe and even a measure of enlightenment.
I am hugely and disproportionately proud that my miniscule contribution (if any) early early in the project’s development led to a ‘thank you’ in the credits. Amazing how much they got ‘right.’”
This needs to go Viral! In Atlanta for the FIFA World Cup game between Spain & Cabo Verde a fan wearing a Spain jersey gestured to a Cabo Verde fan asking if he would like to swap jerseys & he said excitedly said Yes so they traded jerseys & hugged for what seemed like forever.
Thank you @NASA for the coolest day ever. One week ago, we were eating Chili’s in Chattanooga, and today we’re talking to the ISS. This is the American dream.
Thanks for letting three random World Cup tourists from Germany live it for a few days. USA rocks.🇺🇸🚀
Scotland fans have donated nearly $30,000 to charities in Providence as a thank you for welcoming them for their World Cup matches.
• $10,000 to the children's hospital cancer unit
• $10,000 to soccer for underprivileged kids
• $6,500 to help kids learn bagpipes
Norway fans are doing a “Viking Row” up the escalator at Boston’s South Station before heading to the World Cup
Adding this to the list of things I’ve never seen before and probably never will again
Good morning from Galveston, Texas.
Our main mission today is to get a new suitcase. Everywhere we go, people are so incredibly kind to us. This is what we received from the Police Department and the Astros yesterday.
What I appreciate most is that they always think of my friends too and prepare gifts for them as well, not just for me. Huge thank you to everyone🙏
Watching fans from all over the world experience America has been one of the coolest parts of this World Cup.
People are losing their minds over things most of us don’t even think about anymore:
- Free chips and salsa.
- Buc-ee’s.
- Massive grocery stores.
- Six-lane highways.
- Air conditioning everywhere.
- Endless refills.
Meanwhile, the tournament is being played in world-class stadiums that were already built. No rushed construction. No billion-dollar vanity projects.
It’s hard to ignore what visitors keep saying: the infrastructure is incredible, the people are welcoming, and the scale of everything is unlike anything they’ve seen before.
Sometimes it takes seeing your country through someone else’s eyes to appreciate what we have.
We take a lot of it for granted.

“You can’t throw a baseball at a guy from 5 feet and stay in the ballgame and you can’t charge a pitcher and try to fight him and stay in the ballgame. Both deserve to be out of the game.”
