The billionaire CEO of the third richest company on the planet gives the President an actual block of gold so his company is exempted from US Government tariffs. And the whole thing is broadcast live on TV.

Baseball Hot Take: Foul Fly Balls should not count as outs. If it's not eligible for a run, it's not eligible for an out.
