Booth view of the final out of tonight’s no-hitter. Thanks to Steve Sparks for the video.

A no-hitter! Congratulations to Tatsuya Imai, Steven Okert, & Alimber Santa.

Now playing on the Wrigley Field organ: Choosin’ Texas. Nicely done.

Field trip day for a bunch of school groups in Baltimore. They just did a sing-a-long to Golden by Huntrix. That’ll wake you up.

The players & coaches aren’t the only ones wearing 42 today. Thank you, Jackie Robinson.

Pre-game moment of silence. RIP, Scrap Iron.

Coors Field playing Int’l Players Anthem (I Choose You) over highlights of the Rockies’ win vs. the Astros last night.

Czech manager Pavel Chadim knows that this year's tournament is much more difficult, having to face three of the top four rated nations in the world. Some mornings, I am brave," Chadim said, "and some mornings, I want to run home.”

One (broadcaster) Robert Ford, & one (PA announcer) Bob Ford.

Starting my 14th year with the Astros, & 25th year in baseball!

That was so much fun! Loved the Lady Gaga & Ricky Martin cameos.

Alice In Chains for the Seahawks starters, & Aerosmith for the Patriots starters. Nicely done, NBC.

Really smart by Foreigner to record a song they obviously knew would be played by TV networks broadcasting cold & snowy games for years to come.

THIS WEDNESDAY ON CBS... [man walks into bar] i'm the new sheriff [man on barstool scoffs] well last time i checked i was still the sheriff [bartender pulls out shotgun] both of you are under arrest WELCOME TO... SHERIFFTOWN

Music from Indiana’s own John Mellencamp going to break after that fantastic Mendoza TD run is perfection

the female astronaut that we'ee sending to the moon had to warn her husband that he won't just be able to call her to ask where something is in the house 💀💀💀💀

Tremendous call.

Rice, Tulsa, Wake Forest, & Air Force are the 4 FBS schools smaller than UW-River Falls. I believe Wisconsin & New York are the only two states with public universities that compete in Division III football.

If you had told me in 1997, when I was listening to Semi-Charmed Life on the radio on the boom box in my college dorm room, that it would be performed live during of a college football playoff game in 2026, I would’ve had all sorts of questions.

Roddy Jones has a Pop Tart pocket square

Wonderful Christmas in Amsterdam with family that included watching the final minutes of the Knicks’ come-from-behind win! Merry Christmas to all, & to all a good night!

Happy Festivus!

Finally, the Knicks are NBA (Cup) Champs!!

Missed free throws the big story, of course. But if you told me Syracuse would have a chance to beat Houston without their leading scorer, I would take that every time. If the Orange keep guarding like they did today, they’ll be fine.

Walter Alston got hired in part because previous Dodgers manager Charlie Dressen asked for a multi-year deal.Tommy Lasorda’s 3-year contract in 1984 was the first ever multi-year contract for a Dodgers manager.

Just finished a 5-day bike trip through the New Zealand countryside. A fun &, at times, challenging way to travel! www.instagram.com/p/DRQWhNkkpm...

I always like it when PBS says that viewers like me.

At a brewery in Sydney, Australia. Bartender tells me he got into the NFL via fantasy football; he’s a Cowboys fan & “it hasn’t been going very well.”

George Springer is a tough son of a gun.

What a game! Good night.

NHK graphics department forced to improvise in order to keep up with this marathon World Series game

The Dodgers won the entire 1963 World Series in eight hours and 17 minutes.

Someone check in on the folks at The Storehouse Bar and Grill. Great story, by the way. www.mlb.com/news/blue-ja...

you up?

Early voting has started in Texas, & lasts through 10/31. Election Day is 11/4. Every election, & every vote, is important.

Fox using Grateful Dead’s Touch of Grey going to break after Max Scherzer completes 5 innings in a turn-back-the-clock performance is a stroke of brilliance.

Ace Frehley’s version of New York Groove is the best version. RIP.

The season ended sooner than we would’ve liked, but I still feel privileged to call Houston Astros baseball. Appreciate everyone tuning in all season long. Looking forward to 2026!

Here's what it sounded like on SportsTalk790 as Jeremy Peña flashed the leather to secure the #Astros sweep over the Mall Cops. Cheers @raford3.bsky.social! “How about that?”

“I love September, especially when we’re in it.” -Willie Stargell

‘Bout to listen to the rest of the game on an airplane. It means a 70% chance of a win based on past performance. 🤷‍♀️#Astros @raford3.bsky.social

It's Aaron Judge this, Cal Raleigh that, but no one is talking the kind of year Nolan Jones is having

Bobby Shantz started - & won - the first game in Colt .45s/Astros history. An entertaining read.

Former Astros pitcher Corbin Martin, now on the Orioles, is best friends with Colton Cowser’s older brother Ty. They all went to Cy Ranch HS, where Colton & Ty’s dad Dale was an assistant principal.

Jen Pawol, who will become the first woman to umpire a regular season MLB game tomorrow, says Astros manager Joe Espada had words of encouragement for her during spring training. From @tylerkepner.bsky.social: www.nytimes.com/athletic/653...

Can’t say I expected to hear Luck of Lucien by A Tribe Called Quest while at the gym today. Well done, Miami!

46 years ago this week, The Sugarhill Gang released “Rapper’s Delight”—the first rap single to crack the Billboard Hot 100 and a game-changer for hip-hop. 14 minutes that started a movement.

We are going to win tonight. Traveling back from Rome. When I work travel and stream MLB audio —we win. 🤷‍♀️. #astros @raford3.bsky.social
