Pads, Bravos, and Yanks out (😏). Good on the Brew Crew, would like to see them knock out Los Doyers. Rooting for the Southside Sox to advance and make absolute chaos the rest of the way.

Astronomy news for spooky season: a zombie planet orbiting a dead (but still hostile) star. Evidence suggests the following: Star dies, expels outer layers, becomes white dwarf. Gas giant forms from the debris. White dwarf is now blasting planet with radiation, shearing off some of its atmosphere.

Suspected Second-generation Planet Solves NASA Hubble Cold Case - NASA Science

New analysis of archival Hubble data points to the possibility of "dead" white dwarf stars hosting second-generation planetary systems.

Francisco Lindor is the 5th player to have played at least 50% of his games at SS at the time of their 300th HR (in fact all were over 90% at SS), joining: Ernie Banks Cal Ripken Jr. Alex Rodriguez Miguel Tejada h/t @EliasSports

The postseason will be wonderful!! But before we get to it, SAVOR today — the final day with more than four MLB games this year!! No matter what’s in store for your team next, this is one to enjoy. And for fans of teams with something on the line, good luck! Baseball is the best

Last game of a Mets season that will be remembered with, uhh, mixed feelings. Blunders in the front office vs. an amazing class of rookie outfielders and pitchers. A manager floundering vs. finding one with tremendous promise. Saying a soft goodbye to a legend in the radio booth.

HUGE: Autozone workers just won the first ever union at the company. Despite Autozone spending an estimated $210,696 and using every tactic in the book to stop just 11 workers from forming a union, the small shop in New York chose to unionize today. These workers will now join the @uaw.org.

With the untimely losses of Bo Lueders and Andy Williams this year in the hardcore scene, and now Howie Rose’s retirement, I’m reminded that whatever you do in life should be done to lift others up. Acts of kindness small and large get amplified and affect people in ways you’ll never know.

Very touching to be there among a crowd pouring out love for Howie’s send-off from the broadcast booth 🧡💙

Just about an hour until scheduled first pitch and the radar is looking promising. Still will have a few showers but conditions are looking ok to be able to play. The Howie Rose ceremony has been postponed until opening day next season. #LGM

Plenty of rain in the forecast today. That said, looks like there will be a few pockets of clearing this afternoon. Since it's the last home game of the season they might try harder than usual to play. Still have a good chance of rainout and delay. Stay tuned for updates. #LGM

So the weather tomorrow ain’t looking great, but I’m downstate at my parents house still ready to go to tomorrow’s ceremony and game. Had to be there to see off my baseball Uncle 🥲

@MetsBooth retweeted @JoshuaRobert56 Gare just said on @SNYtv that @HowieRose told him he plans to share his “closing remarks” after the game, in case tomorrow is rained out. I am now listening to @MetsBooth. You should be too. If this is it, then I need to hear the radio GOAT. Thank you, Howie.🫡
