Freddie Freeman set a new record last night, homering in his 6th straight World Series game. He's a lock for Series MVP. After Ohtani was hurt Saturday night, all the World Series ads on Fox Sunday during football games had been changed from Ohtani to Freddie.
Between innings everyone in the ballpark silently held up cards with the name of a loved one they had lost to cancer. Freddie wrote "MY MOM" on his card. As the camera showed Freeman on the Jumbotron (and to the national TV audience) a Yankees fan could be heard yelling "Freeman you suck!"
LA RF Mookie Betts reached near the stands in the right field foul territory to catch a popup. Two season ticket holders each grabbed one of Mookie's arms. One fan pried the ball out of Betts' glove. The guys were kicked out of the stadium, and were originally told they could return for tonight's game five until MLB said otherwise. Interviewed afterward, the guys were unrepentant, still proud of what they had done.
This past Saturday, Colts second-year QB Anthony Richardson walked off the field in the middle of a key drive, and told his coach that he was "tired". Last year Richardson was Indy's number one draft choice, but spent most of the 2023 season hurt. This coming Sunday the Colts will start backup QB Joe Flacco. No work when (or if) Richardson will be able to recover his starting position.
Monday: worked through lunch then until 545 pm. Wanted to run but the soccer complex was too crowded. Just went home. Pot stickers for supper.
Tuesday: up early to go to the gym. Just hard to make any progress at work. Lunch in downtown Norcross. I had a grilled chicken sandwich with a pleasantly large side salad. Chicken breast was big but flat. Supper: grilled chicken, roasted potato wedges, and kale.
Wednesday: after my annual physical I stopped by RaceTrac, came home to do a little work, went to my eye doctor appointment, got my oil changed at the car wash, and donated some items to Goodwill. Went back home, fixed quesadillas for lunch, and tried to catch up on work.
Climate change science is proven to be wrong (again): plants absorb 31% more carbon dioxide than scientists had originally thought.
Cal Ripken, Jr. and MIKE TROUT [B-R Bio] have both won an American League MVP and been elected All-Star Game MVP more than once. Trout's MVPs = 2014, 2016, 2019. ASG MVPs = 2014, 2015. Ripken's MVPs = 1983, 1991. ASG MVPs = 1991, 2001. Trout has the highest career WAR for any player currently in the majors: 86.2. Trout was the first to compile a season with 30 HR, 45 SB, 125 R. In 2012, Trout had 30 HR, 49 SB & 129 runs scored. Since then Ronald Acuna and Shohei Ohtani have joined him.
Trump called Christians 'the most important people'. President Biden called half the country "garbage". Lots of accusations these days about various people being a fascist. What exactly does that mean? Based on the definition, who is the most fascist?
Article: Don't Demonize Our Foes (is that what I am doing?). The Wicked Spirits Possessing Them Have Already Seen to That. God says to love your enemies. He didn't say to love HIS enemies.
Article: Tim Walz had a fling with the daughter of the top Chinese Communist official during teaching stint in China. Also: China buying up millions of acres of American farmland. China buying American companies. Hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of young Chinese men illegally crossing the Mexican border into America. China is making alliances with Russia and Iran. The current US administration does nothing. No need to worry, right?
Article: the New York Times is working with the left-wing organization Media Matters to demonetize conservative media outlets ahead of Election Day. Jimmy Kimmel's 19 minute anti-Trump rant backfired.
