Re: Baseball
Got to see it in the bottom of the 5th. The Savannah player easily reached 2nd. He then made it home somehow - I can't find a box score on ESPNneoplacebo wrote: ↑Tue Jul 08, 2025 2:20 pmI can see how there's a lot of strategy regarding a sprint. I assume the catcher does not have to touch the ball again once the sprint is announced. All outfielders should immediately run to somewhere around 2nd base in order to touch the ball as quick as possible. I do figure there's ways to catch a sprinter. Hell, he could be tagged out between first and second if everybody goes bananas.

My brush with greatness.
I peed next to him at a Cubs playoff game in Atlanta in 2003.
For me, it was a career highlight.
