And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.
Did not expect one of the best paragraphs Iβd read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

In one hour summary in #Portland Natl. Guard Trial, USG lawyer manages to use word "agitator" 17 times. I haven't heard it that often since I was a boy in the segregated south. Important to note: "agitation" without more is protected by the First Amendment, which does not include a decorum proviso.

ABC Pulls Jimmy Kimmel Off Air for Charlie Kirk Comments After F.C.C. Pressure
There isn't even the slightest amount of subtlety to this. Kimmel criticized the party in power, so the regulators ordered ABC to cancel his show. No different from what would have happened in the Soviet Union.
