Not your normal numbers game.
Fox News announcers talking pre-game about Dodgers Blake Snell adjusting after game 1 and needing to “establish the fastball” in World Series game 5.
Apparently the Blue Jays had other ideas.

This World Series is a LONG way from over.
But all this talk earlier this week from sports pundits. about Yamamoto possibly being the next postseason Bumgarner. What if the next Bumgarner turns out to be Yesavage?
(A couple cool facts from tonight – Trey Yesavage’s 2025 salary is $57,204, which is his prorated salary for the part of the season he played in the major leagues. He did get a $4 million signing bonus. And in his first game this season he pitched before a crowd of 327 in single A for the Dunedin Blue Jays against the Jupiter Hammerheads. Tonight’s crowd was over 52,000)
To put that $57.204 in perspective, Game 5, LA Dodgers’ starting pitcher Blake Snell makes $36 million. Works out to about $60,000 for a five pitch at bat.

Meanwhile, the anti-DEI crowd has no problem with Kai Trump’s sponsor’s exemption to get a place in an LPGA tour event.
Kai, Donald’s 18 year old granddaughter, is ranked 461th in the American JUNIOR Golf Girls Association and finished last this March in a tournament- shooting 52 over par.

Your reminder, GOP got around the 60 vote threshold in the Senate to confirm Herschel Walker as Ambassador to the Bahamas. They could do it to re-open the Government King Donald doesn’t want House to return as they’d have to release the Epstein Files.

We are living through the worst Dr. Strangelove sequel ever. Today it’s “President Strangelove: How I learned to distract from The Epstein Files by threatening the bomb.”

For those thinking Dems should just trust GOP’s promises to negotiate.
There was 3 day shutdown in Jan 2018, Trump said he’d not negotiate DACA during shutdown. Then GOP pledged to work towards a deal. Dems relented. Nothing happened. By April Trump tweeted “NO MORE DACA DEAL.”
–
Wonder why Republicans, who control White House, House and Senate, aren’t talking nonstop about all the shutdowns when Democrats had control of all three branches of government.
Oh, that’s right, when Democrats had all three, USA didn’t HAVE shutdowns. It is a #TRUMPShutdown

LIndsay Graham on Donald and Pete Hegseth regularly killing people in boats just because they are “allegedly” smuggling drugs. “I love this debate. I think most Americans are gonna be with Trump.”
Graham, who knew something about war crimes, used to be John McCain’s best friend. I hope McCain haunts his dreams.

Mike Johnson: “Religious freedom does not extend and give you the right to get in the face of an I.C.E. Officer and assault them.”
Where is the followup question “So why does religious freedom give you the right to get in the face of women walking into abortion clinics?”

Senator Amy Klobuchar was talking about Senate’s bipartisan bill to assert their rights on tariffs nails it “His new tariff against Canada isn’t about security, or the economy,
It’s just about the President’s personal grievances and Americans are the ones paying the price.”
Actually later Wednesday the Senate just voted to end Trump’s new higher tariffs on Canada. Tariffs based, not on economics but on Donald’s petulant reaction to an ad aired by province of Ontario accurately quoting Ronald Reagan. GOP House cowards remain in recess. They don’t ever want to vote again.

Some GOP & right-wing media want us not to care about Canada.
But Canada is 1 of top 2 USA trading partners. (mexico is the other)
Many parts for products made in US come from Canada and most of our imported crude oil. Canadian tourists spent over $20 billion in USA in 2024.
This latest Trump tantrum hurts us all.
