Don’t worry. I can confirm that they will wear the classic, traditional, perfect, pinstripe uniforms.
I certainly hope the Mets don’t plan on wearing their City Connect uniforms tomorrow on David Wright’s number retirement day.

How can you not see the difference? The All Star Game is an utterly meaningless exhibition. The shootout is a regular season monstrosity. The free runner rule became necessary because of the ridiculous number of pitchers used in every game.
@HowieRose Says a guy who hates the shootout to determine hockey games. What’s wrong with playing baseball. Manfred doesn’t have the patience to watch a 17 inning game?.

I get strokes from him.
I'm just imagining the fact that this Orangutan has no idea to where he's going. He's just there, driving a golf car, with a serious face.

Can’t blame me for this one.
Rory's group teed off EXACTLY 4 hours ago. They've played 11 holes.

Flight crews deal with a lot, particularly from abusive passengers and too often are unfairly criticized. That’s why it gives me special pleasure to thank @delta flight attendant Edgar for his fabulous service on my flight today from Florida. He smiled the whole time. Thanks, E!

I can’t wait to see @CliffFloyd30 this weekend. One of my handful of favorite Mets to be around. Just a great guy who never fails to leave me smiling.
Some David Wright rookie hazing in 2015. @CliffFloyd30 always knew David Wright would be a star and it was his job to keep him relaxed. Some funny stories from back in 2018. #LGM

I could have saved you the first two steps.
“I asked ChatGPT” “I asked Grok” well I asked Howie Rose and he said “Put it in the books!”.

Okay. Here’s the ancillary question. Would you prefer a tied regular season nine inning game which could decide a division championship or a playoff spot settled by the current format with the free runner, or with the “home run off”? And is that choice in MLB’s future?.
"We should never play an extra-inning game again.". If ever an All-Star Game was made for a Weird & Wild column, this was it. So. you're welcome! What a nutty baseball game - and ending.

So very sad to hear this. Wayne Thomas was a solid goaltender, but also a first rate gentleman and one of the nicest people I came to know during his time with the Rangers. RIP.
We join the Sharks and hockey community in mourning the passing of Rangers alum Wayne Thomas. We are thinking of Wayne’s friends and loved ones during this difficult time.

What a great, fun way to decide an otherwise meaningless exhibition. All you have to do is watch the reactions of the players and listen to the fans to know that this was a, pardon the expression, home run for baseball.

They just HAD to change the caps. Couldn’t leave perfect alone.

The WWEification of the HR derby intros reminds me of an interview I did with Bob Sheppard. When I asked him if he was ever told to change his classy, stately style he said “If they want a professional PA announcer they have me. If they want a screamer let them hire Crazy Eddie!”.

My life changed forever the moment this woman was born. Barbara and I discovered layers of love we never knew existed. All that @AlyssaRose has done since is make us prouder and prouder with each day. Happy Birthday to the kindest, sweetest girl imaginable. I love you sweetie.

Wow. I had no idea. My wife and I watched the entire first season and really enjoyed it.

Daily reminder that I am now a fossil.
Jonah Tong grew up a Braves fan 😱. He says his favorite pitcher was Mike Soroka
