I love that Bryan Danielson is serious enough about retiring from pro wrestling that his surprise appearance has him wrestling in a t-shirt to cover up his slightly soft belly #aew

Can you imagine being a Pittsburgh AEW fan, buying tickets for what you assume will be a regular post-PPV Dynamite, and you end up getting a Mox-Danielson reunion, an Elite reunion, and then a surprise Danielson out-of-retirement match???

Video proof that Painter was actually the first to call for ABS. Kid knew he threw a perfect game-winning strike 3.

Also, my wife had a 2 pm doctors appointment tomorrow that she rescheduled right after the second out of the 10th, which I told her could’ve been a huge jinx but it worked out so now tomorrow our afternoon is clear. And if they reschedule for 5 pm or later? Well, I’m also taking Friday off.

I thought that JT wasn’t gonna challenge so Painter did? That’s what I thought I saw, and JT’s expression looked doubtful.

they call it free baseball only because the vast cost to your spirit isn't measurable

I was going to take the blame for sitting instead of pacing nervously, but honestly Trea was gonna do that regardless of what I was doing.

I need one of the stat nerds to tell me the average runs scored by the Phillies in Sanchy’s losses and no decisions. Luzardo too for that matter.

They went out the way they played all year, unable to hit, unable to catch, and leaving their starting pitching out to dry

Meanwhile, rookie CF makes a great read and catch saving more runs.

Un-fucking-believable. Sanchez can’t fucking catch a break from this fucking team.

John Lowe @archaeocore.bsky.social · 14h
Murphy had no intention of swinging at anything, only goal to run up Sanchez count so we have to go bullpen for top of lineup. And it’s going to work.

John Lowe @archaeocore.bsky.social · 15h
OR MAYBE NOT! Can’t believe that happened, perfect execution of the old 3-2-3 double play that you work on in practice constantly 😝

Losing Arraez has probably been, after the whole bullpen mess, the biggest factor in the Phillies last week swoon and Wild Card performanc.

Atlanta: we will take SO many pitches to run the pitchers count up! Phillies: we will swing at every first pitch, no matter how bad!

John Lowe @archaeocore.bsky.social · 15h
Yep, and part of me feels like JT needs to call a lot more pitches in the zone to get balls in play for that reason. The other part of me knows that can turn into runs very quickly if they turn into meatballs

Sánchez being at 37 pitches through two innings does not bode well for the latter part of this game

John Lowe @archaeocore.bsky.social · 16h
So from what I’ve gather med we scored a run in the first inning (yay!) but it could’ve been a lot more but for dumb luck/questionable baserunning (booooo)

I am on a weekly call that could’ve been done 15 minutes ago, and so I can’t watch or stream the game but I also can’t say “can we wrap this up so I can watch baseball please”

Alt text added for accessibility.
Image of a guide for avoiding sexual assault, aimed at the people who commit it. The background is purple, with numbered items for people to consider. The guide is satirical, and it turns common victim-blaming advice around onto the perpetrators.

The upper right says "sexual violence centre cork" and has their logo, a drawing of fancy door. The organization is out of Cork City and County, Ireland.

Title: "How to avoid sexual assault! A quick and easy guide*". There's an asterisk leading to a tiny footnote that says "*for perpetrators".

1: Don't put drugs in people's drinks. 

2: Use the buddy system! If you can't stop yourself from sexually assaulting someone, ask a trusted friend to accompany you at all times to stop you.

3: When you come across someone who is drunk or asleep, the best thing to do is not rape them. 

4: When you see a woman walking by herself, leave her alone.

5: If you are in a lift and someone steps in, remember not to sexually assault them. 

6: Carry a whistle. If you think you might rape someone, blow the whistle until someone comes to stop you.

Thinking about how the baseball wild card is set up for (potentially) 3 straight days of the same teams playing in the same stadium at the same time and how fucking dumb that is from a TV perspective. Also, the only 2 competitive games were played during the day to half-full stadiums.

Blossom Music Center, the place I saw the MTV Alternative National tour in summer of ‘93. Got my nose broken by someone crowdsurfing in the lawn section to a Spin Doctors song (I was not in or even particularly near the “pit”, it moved downhill towards me)

Seriously though, our second best bullpen option, the other guy we used and got a shutout inning, is a rookie September call-up who was in Double AA all season! Bowlan hasn’t pitched in like 2 weeks and is inconsistent. Everyone else is a total roll of the dice, at best.

Honestly the strategy to play Hill and De La Cruz as righties against Sale didn’t pay off.

That fucking sucks, but what are you gonna do other than maybe use your bullpen better? Duran is very susceptible to first pitch homers.

Hill actually jumped too high thinking it was going over the fence (and would’ve robbed if so), but it hit his wrist at the top of the wall 😭

I know you don’t have to make an effort to avoid being hit by a pitch, but I didn’t know you could lift your foot into being hit by a pitch.

I did not realize that all 3 potential wild card games are played at the same stadium which seems a little unfair.

As long as they have the tomahawk logo on the field, they are inviting it. They are affirmatively for it.
