Houser doing just as well as we could expect so far!

I don't like "violations" in baseball. Violations are for foofy sports like soccer. Something about there being "violations" in this sport just doesn't sit right.

The Mets can really honor Jackie Robinson with bunt hits followed by tearing up the basepaths.

I've never heard the term violation used in soccer. Maybe US soccer ball it is, certainly not in the games I watch have I ever heard a commentator use it

SNY getting it right on commemorations this year, so far. First the Al Downing interview (taped, I know, but still) and now Butch.

See ESPN, you CAN conduct an interview during a game while still showing the game itself!!
And these are important discussions as opposed to shrinking the game to 1/4 screen
or even flat-out ignoring it for frivolous and self-serving nonsense.

No, just the general sentiment of there being "violations." Not necessarily the word being used. We're not dealing in traffic tickets, we're dealing with sports. Violations in sports seem a little too ... bureaucratic.

Bob Aspromonte, Tommy Brown, Carl Erskine, Jim Gentile, Fred Kipp, Sandy Koufax — Jackie Robinson's remaining living Dodger teammates. (Erskine is 98!)
Presumably, he still has a Montreal Royal teammate or two out there. Maybe even a UCLA Bruin.

The pop-up parade with runners on continues.
And everyone has been a contributor.

God bless Álvarez. He'll take pitches with runners on, but you can tell from his body language that he hates it.

I tend to think every player named Nolan or Ryan is named after Nolan Ryan.
Especially if they're white. Doubly especially if they're white and from Texas.
