Shohei Ohtani is a once-in-a-century player, so Momoyo Kelley wanted to wait for her opportunity for an autograph.

The 100-year-old Salt Lake City resident briefly met Ohtani before tonight's Dodgers-Rockies game saying it was “like a dream."

The Rockies are ‘suggesting’ pitches from the dugout. Could it inspire a bigger trend? At Coors Field, where the elevation turns fly outs into home runs, every pitch of every inning belongs to pitching coach Alon Leichman.

because this?!

Democracy will not come Today, this year Nor ever Through compromise and fear. I have as much right As the other fellow has To stand On my two feet And own the land. I tire so of hearing people say, Let things take their course. Tomorrow is another day. I do not need my freedom when I'm dead. I cannot live on tomorrow's bread. Freedom Is a strong seed Planted In a great need. I live here, too. I want freedom Just as you. Langston Hughes

Screenshotted excerpt from linked article reading as follows: "In public, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has cultivated a reputation for care and caution. The papers reveal a different side of him. At a critical moment for the country and the court, the papers show, he acted as a bulldozer in pushing to stop Mr. Obama’s plan to address the global climate crisis. When colleagues warned the chief justice that he was proposing an unprecedented move, he was dismissive. “I recognize that the posture of this stay request is not typical,” he wrote. But he argued that the Obama plan, which aimed to regulate coal-fired plants, was “the most expensive regulation ever imposed on the power sector,” and too big, costly and consequential for the court not to act immediately."

NEW -- Florida Republicans are more than a bit nervous that Ron DeSantis' plan to squeeze some more GOP House seats out of the state could end up backfiring, given the political climate.
