Tom Hamilton was already the best ever. But between this and his call on the game-tying, two-out, 9th-inning bomb from Big Christmas (among other highlights), he might've just had the best game of his legendary career. Cleveland in six!

Sadly he's a few years too late to play for noted space expert Ned Yost. https://t.co/Bpy3vnSSju

KANSAS CITY -- Word of warning: If you’re going to ask Royals manager Ned Yost about space exploration or moon landings, you better not do so casually. As Saturday’s 50th anniversary of the moon...
That's one small step for Paul DeJong. One giant leap in the standings.

Another day, another brush with heat records, as St. Louis suffers through a heat wave that is threatening to rewrite local record books in both intensity and duration.
This week’s combination of heat and humidity has already delivered some of the highest heat index values ever recorded in the region — Tuesday's topped out at 117 degrees.

If you missed it: Here’s our weekend read about flood-damaged homes left vacant or condemned, and the long road to #flood recovery that many area residents have endured for the past year and counting.

Last week we went into the River Des Peres tunnel, which is strewn with massive piles of concrete moved by the #flood-prone waterway. Experts say lingering blockages there and in the channel upstream worsen flood risks. But no one is acting to clean it up. https://t.co/FaSqz9v1mv

Experts have been calling on government bodies to take responsibility for years. Now, they say, someone has to clean the river out. Before the floods hit again.

St. Louis is facing quite the week of whiplash from one #climate risk to another: Smoke from Canadian wildfires yesterday and today. Dangerous, triple-digit heat tomorrow and on Friday. https://t.co/1O1Pd1Sc6B

Thursday's forecast calls for a high of 103. Friday, meanwhile, is expected to top out at 101.

When Doves Fly... Loved this story’s many surprises, from young doves ("squabs," apparently) finding their way home from across the state, to the unfortunate encounter a flock had with the Olympic cauldron in 1988.
Dove releases boom in the St. Louis area. Owners train them to return from miles away.

Hoops are coming to Tower Grove Park. And maybe soon to Forest Park. A relative boom of new #basketball venues is helping to erode what many say is a glaring absence of courts in St. Louis' prominent public spaces — and a signal of where Black people are or aren’t welcome.

Love that a friend and I saw these Nugs lose at home to a Pistons team on its way to an NBA-worst record that was playing Cory Joseph in crunch time. Just shows the awesome power of those #teal '90s throwbacks Detroit was rocking. Champs got nothing on those! #TransitiveProperty

The latest analysis from the Army Corps resoundingly concluded that #radiation in and right around Jana Elementary is normal and that the school is safe for use. How normal? It says radiation risks at the site are 8x lower than someone would face for simply living in Colorado.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers says the now-shuttered Jana Elementary School in Florissant shows natural levels of ambient radioactivity and could safely "be used for anything." But members of the public remain skeptical and concerned.

Reminiscent of scenes in the western US during 2020. Hard to believe this is occurring in the Northeast.
9:45 AM at NWS Binghamton. Sun is no longer visible, everything's orange, the parking lot lights have come on, and we're stuck at 50°F.

The #soy industry is betting big on #aquaculture as a market for soy-based feed. And farming fish is a big deal. One on hand, fish are far more efficient at converting feed into meat than cows and pigs. But sourcing that soy and managing those farms "has to be done responsibly.”

It’s been an unusually dry May around St. Louis — closing in on being the city’s driest in nearly 20 years and putting the area on the brink of drought, experts say. https://t.co/4xROhWdDYM

A term that's new to me: The push to market the area as the "Ag Coast," thanks to all the farm products that move on the Mississippi. It comes as St. Louis-area shipping officials eye a wealth of public funding for projects aiming to boost river freight. https://t.co/iBgWmqztiB
