Buffalo alongside highway with police cars.

This isn't Yellowstone. Owner has been contacted and sounds like they're safely off the highway in Elma.

Uhm, we're hearing about what were reported as buffalo on US 12 in Elma. Not kidding. Both directions of highway are closed.

Really cool story. Baseball is the best.

Tonight’s Speedway Classic is not, as widely reported, the first MLB game ever played in Tennessee. Memphis, Nashville, and Chattanooga all had Negro League teams.

Speedway Classic: first MLB game to take place in a racetrack and a lake at the same time.

Fittingly enough, the Speedway Classic is one big car wreck.

TV announcer just said there was a "shine" on the field that looked worse than it probably was. C'mon man. There are puddles between 1st and 2nd. This is dangerous.

Auto correct suggested "Rob Manfred be canned" and I would also accept that.

It is pouring rain in Bristol. Rob Manfred be damned, there's no way they get nine innings in today.

At some point, they're going to try to rush and start this Speedway game while the turf is still saturated. I hope the union is watching because this might not be safe for playing baseball.

WHAT A WHEEEE!

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.  Rockies win 17-16.

The @Rockies were down 9-0 in the 1st inning

They just won 17-16!!!

Amazing. This is so good for the Rockies in a tough season.

this Rockies win was one of the most ridiculous MLB comebacks you’ll ever see. they were down 9-0 in the 1st!

The most Colorado Rockies game of the year. Brings back memories of the early years.

Mission to Mars, a really terrible space movie. Tim Robbins is floating helplessly out in space and another astronaut tries to save him with a tether on a winch. The cable goes out, out, out and stops right before it gets to him with an audible CLINK! The audience howled with stunned laughter.

Locklear being included after being called up today is legitimately funny. The Diamondbacks just arriving in Sacramento when this trade broke is legitimately funny. A lot of funny business!

Ben should have been in the ESPN Top 10 tonight. it's a travesty.

He'll get there soon enough. The kid has some real talent.

Ichiro gives Seattle one last gift from Cooperstown: himself What could have been unsurprising was nonetheless electric, as Ichiro Suzuki entered the Hall of Fame by showing himself with humor and honesty.

It’s difficult to be known as a public figure, even after 28 years in professional baseball. In his hilarious, earnest, purposeful Hall of Fame Induction speech, Ichiro Suzuki made it clear to the English-speaking world exactly who he is. www.lookoutlanding.com/2025/7/28/24...

This Will Vest pitch to Eugenio Suárez might end up having major ramifications on the Trade Deadline.

Eugenio Suárez just got hit in the hand by a pitch and left the game. It didn't look good. Hope it's nothing too serious.
