I went deeper into the at-bats where Luis Ortiz is accused of throwing balls on purpose. 1) These pitches didn't just compromise games. They helped flip them. Twice. 2) It's the player props, man 3) This is NOT a case where legal sports betting improved the situation slate.com/technology/2...

What does readiness mean when every decision carries a cost? Ryan sat down with the former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff to unpack what's holding back America’s defense industrial base, and how to fix it before it’s too late. Listen here: pod.link/682478916/e...

Pretty rare for General Brown to write something, so probably a good idea to read it. And not surprisingly, he’s spot on…we need a revolution in the way we develop and procure munitions

Yoshinobu Yamamoto is the 2025 World Series MVP 🏆 He joins Hideki Matsui (2009) as the only Japanese-born winners of the award.

FREDDIE FREEMAN! WALK-OFF HOME RUN IN THE 18TH INNING. DODGERS WIN!

#Shohei is doing unreal things tonight. 6 innings, just 2-hits allowed, no runs, and 10 Ks Oh yeah, and he’s hit three home runs. Just incredibly stuff from maybe the best baseball player who ever lived

Shohei Ohtani literally just homered out of Dodger Stadium

I guess who will be there this weekend? This guy!

No world war. No oil shock. No rally-around-the-flag. Just a reckoning for Tehran.

If there’s one thing I hate it’s when people say Phil was right. He blew up pro golf to grab the bag, but only the Saudis willingness to lose the better part of a bill is keeping that terrible golf league in business

The best commanders don’t just get briefed. They get involved.

Starting my Friday off with a coffee and reading @brianlaslie.bsky.social’s excellent “Fighting From Above: A Combat History of the US Air Force”

Red Bull's 2nd seat is averaging 0.7 points per race & trails Max Verstappen by 148 points in 2025. At that rate Max would need to miss the next 212 races before Red Bull's 2nd seat had more points than he does right now. That would mean Max taking almost 9 seasons off. 🤯

The Los Angeles Dodgers have treated Shohei Ohtani’s return to the mound as a long-term play for months, preaching caution at every turn. Now, the wait is over. Ohtani, the pitcher, is back. 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/642...

Shohei is pitching tonight and I’m absolutely giddy to watch. The 10:10pm first pitch is a crusher, guess I’ll be dragging at work tomorrow

Absolutely thrilled to watch Shohei on the mound for the first time in Dodger blue

Unbelievable start to a career

In a ceremony marked by a touch of déjà vu, Col. Kathryn Gaetke assumed command on Friday of the 8th Fighter Wing, a unit once led by her husband. www.stripes.com/theaters/asi...

Don’t worry Shohei, I did the same thing during the game

Ukrainian security service sources tell @financialtimes.com the agency is conducting "a large-scale special operation to destroy enemy bomber aircraft" deep inside Russia. "SBU drones are targeting aircraft that bomb Ukrainian cities every night." Claims 40 aircraft have been hit.

Extraordinary on debut 😮‍💨 We'll never tire of watching this back ⏮️ #F1 || #SpanishGP 🇪🇸

It's Shohei Ohtani's world, the rest of us are just living in it 🙌

Wife and I saw Pearl Jam last night, the last show of the Dark Matter tour. They played nearly three hours, sounded as good as ever, and ended the show and tour with a champagne toast to their crew. Awesome evening with my favorite band #PearlJam #DarkMatter

Race winning move by Max. He is just phenomenal

The bat drop from Shohei Ohtani 🔥 He capped off a six-run Dodgers comeback in the ninth inning with the go-ahead homer.

The future Pope at an MLB game makes me smile

We’ll see if “James” wins the Pulitzer or not, but it was my book of 2024, so it’s already won big recognition this year

Beale AFB was announced as the home of the Air Force’s new Collaborative Combat Aircraft’s readiness unit and its semiautonomous, unmanned aircraft. Beale beat out Nellis AFB in Nevada and North Dakota’s Grand Forks AFB for the advanced unit. www.stripes.com/branches/air...

Ayrton Senna became an F1 Grand Prix winner for the first time on this day in 1985 with a dominating display at Estoril.

What a great quali. Probably still a McLaren day tomorrow, but hopefully Max is going to make it interesting

Ken Griffey Jr (yes, that Ken Griffey Jr) took some incredible photos during the Masters that are available in Getty

On this day in 1947, Jack Roosevelt Robinson bravely walked through that door and changed this country for the better. Here’s my painting of the great man at Ebbets Field, August 28, 1949.

Brand new footage of the newly revealed J-36 6th generation Chinese stealth fighter. Much better visual of the aircraft's features. I think this is the best look of it so far.

Remembering Kurt Cobain today on the 31st anniversary of his passing (April 5, 1994) album.ink/KurtCobainRIP

Boring race but Max was clinical. He’s a force of nature

What a lap. He’s simply the best right now
