Among MLB SPs from 2008-2015 who threw 2 mph or more harder than league average when they debuted, 50% have thrown 1,000 or more MLB career innings. Among those who who threw 1 mph or more softer than league average, that number was 15%. https://t.co/22WEgOyVIO

If Hanson doesn’t perform in the 6th inning of Game 3 I’m not watching.

As someone who thought cancer was good until the Jonas Brothers told me it wasn't in the middle of a World Series game, I liked it.
If you liked that stoppage for a Jonas Brothers song please let me know. I am guessing 99.9% of those watching hated it. But I want to know if I am right.

The Jonas Brothers performed "I Can't Lose," dedicated to everyone standing up to cancer, during Game 2 of the #WorldSeries 🎶

1st pitch of the game Kirk converts a 28% strike into a strike. Really quiet move with + hold timing.

I want to love something in life more than John Smoltz loves small ball from sluggers.

Yamamoto struck out 14 in a CG win Game 6 of the Japan Series in 2023 in a must-win game to force a Game 7. I dont know how this is a bigger or more pressure-filled game than that.
“This will be the most pressure that Yamamoto has had in his entire career” @AROD talks about what he expects from Yoshinobu Yamamoto tonight with the Dodgers down 1-0 in the series

I can appreciate Tennessee conducting a wider search but this was true from the jump and everyone knew it. I had conversations with multiple sitting head coaches who said something to the effect of, “That’s a great job but Elander should be the hire.”
Danny White on hiring Josh Elander: “He earned it. He earned it in the last eight years building our program into the powerhouse it is today and he earned it during the search process."
