I predict that after games 3 that all 4 will be 2-1

I thought it was an "Onioneque" headline to suggest that Buehler had lost velocity.

Every once in a while I start feeling really old.  Luis Tiant's passing and that picture of Freddy Lynn in the article was a slap of reality.

I glanced at the headline below the Tiant story ("Thieves ripped watch off Dodgers pitcher Buehler's arm, cops say") and read it as

Thieves ripped off Dodgers pitcher Buehler's arm, cops say

I think I need a nap.

Weird that all 4 LDS are tied 1-1

He was cool. I didn't realize he'd adopted that pitching motion because he blew out his arm throwing fastballs the normal way and had to come up with some deception.

Luis Tiant, beloved Red Sox pitching legend, dies at 83

 I assumed they were up and running somewhere because they paid something like $15 million dollars for this. Is this some sort of Kickstarter campaign? Drum up interest before even making a product?

I'm also having some issues processing the fact that there's a clothing manufacturer named Strauss when we already have a fairly well known one called Levi Strauss.

edit
Mr Strauss says his company has a "legally binding" agreement that allows them to use the name in the US but I lol'd at that because Levi's doesn't just let their TM go like that. So there must be a royalties deal. I wouldn't be surprised if Levi's is subsidizing the move/bringing them in to compete with Carhartt.

Yeah, those are annoying.  They're like football helmet logos, almost as large, and they're on both sides.  I guess the small logo on the back of the helmet wasn't noticeable enough.

Not a fan of the Strauss logos 

Just a bit outside!  
Love the Ueke!

He's 90. You could tell he really wanted to call another game.

Wait! What?! Whoa! Ueker is still alive? I thought he passed some years ago. Wow!  I photographed his brass plaque when I visited the Brewers vs Cubs 5 years ago.

I loved listening to the Ueke.
