Yankees 10 strikeouts through 4 innings, trailing 5-0 against Toronto. Looking like a team that lost its way.

*Incredible* work from @daigofuji.bsky.social - instead of twisting your brain in knots to figure out who would make the playoffs, just use this incredible interactive tool based on scenarios for the remaining series: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/09/23/s...

Through three innings, Red Sox have 6 runs and Yankees have 7 strikeouts. #RedSox #Yankees #MLB.

2 on, 1 out and Giolito walks the guy with a .175 batting average. Sheesh. #RedSox

If the Red Sox can’t remember how to hit with RISP they won’t get far in the post season.

Rickie Ricardo on the radio call after the balk: "This can't get any worse for the Yankees" Four seconds later, Narváez goes yard.

⭐️ Just the THIRD time #Yankees long club history that their pitching has allowed 7+ runs in the 9th inning of a home game. Only other times: August 22, 1976 vs #Angels and September 8, 1937 also vs #RedSox.

Alex Bregman 0 for 2 against the Yankees in the ninth inning. DFA.

Sox are 4 for 30 with RISP the last two nights and have left 23 men on base and beat the Yankees twice.

This is the first time since Sept 4, 1965 that the Yankees lost 1-0 to Red Sox and had 3 or fewer hits in the game.

As a Red Sox fan, checking in on a Yankees streamer after tonight's win is tremendous content: www.youtube.com/live/lSfIiaU...

Last two games for the Red Sox: * 2 x 31 with RISP (.064). * 27 runners left on base.

And the Red Sox continue their 0-fer with RISP.

My favorite thing to do is look at Roman Anthony’s stats. Coming into tonight, he ranks: - 1st in % of PA that get to a 2-0 count - 1st in % of PA that get to 3-1 - 3rd in % of PA that get to 3-0 - 7th in pitches seen per PA - 3rd in hard hit % - 5th in average exit velocity - 10th in walk %

Youngest players with 4 BB and 1 HR in a game (Since 1901) Mel Ott (20 yrs., 124 days) 1929 Ted Williams (21 yrs., 21 days) 1939 Roman Anthony (21 yrs., 91 days) 2025 (Ted hit .327/436/.609 in 1939 with 31 HRs and 145 RBI. He finished fourth in the MVP behind DiMaggio, Foxx and Feller).

Great news.

Over their last 46 games, the New York Yankees are 18-28. Over their last 46 games, the Colorado Rockies are 18-28. ...I just thought that was a fun, neat statistic 😊

RTing these comments re Edu Dept. They know the legal technicalities better than I do. The essence of it is clear to anyone who understands the basic logic of the constitution. These decisions, which the 6 arent even willing to issue as decisions, go past corrupt into something more like criminal.

@metafilter.bsky.social, looks like metafilter is down. Any updates?

🚨 Attention Precinct 6 voters - the PDF of the LWV voters guide (my.lwv.org/sites/defaul...) has some mistakes. It omits 4 of the 7 TMM candidates entirely and lists one candidate’s response under a different candidate’s name. The responses at www.vote411.org seem more complete and accurate.

I agree with Bill Kristol. There, I said it.

I knew it was bad, but I didn't know it was this bad.

Very disappointed that the Red Sox didn't hit any doubles the last two innings of the game, and scored only two runs.

It’s now the sixth inning and we’re up to 16 runs, 20 hits, 9 doubles, 1 home run.

The Red Sox have 11 runs on 15 hits, including 5 doubles and a home run. It’s the 5th inning. #RedSox

So many hundreds of thousands of words of ink, so many countless hours wasted, explaining how this man was secretly savvy, and it turns out he’s just dumb as a rock, clueless about basic economics, and driven by a malicious paranoia that conniving foreigners are ripping us off

These #RedSox are fun!

Nice to have a pinch hitter batting over .500. #RedSox #WalkOff

I'm doing a little digging, but AFAICT the top 20 research universities in the US have collectively received somewhere around $1T of research grants over the past 25 years or so. Just one of those, Stanford, has created well over $1T of economic value in the same period of time.

If you live in NH, let your representatives know this is not okay.

This is good.

Today I started moving news and politics follows into a Blue Sky list, so I can better control my exposure to upsetting, albeit important information. I want my main feed to be about community and joy. That’s where I’m grounded.

1. Today the NIH director issued a new directive slashing overhead rates to 15%. I want to provide some context on what that means and why it matters. grants.nih.gov/grants/guide...

🚨BREAKING. From a program officer at the National Science Foundation, a list of keywords that can cause a grant to be pulled. I will be sharing screenshots of these keywords along with a decision tree. Please share widely. This is a crisis for academic freedom & science.

The awful news that Elon Musk clashed with a top Treasury official in an effort to access govt payment systems raises a crucial question: Did Trump authorize this, or not? I talked to former officials who explain why this is a key question, and why it's so alarming: newrepublic.com/article/1910...
