Posted in: 'Luffy’ gang member gets 23 years in prison for robbery, murder of 90-year-old woman See in context

I really wonder how a judge justifies giving such a light sentence for someone who tied up an old woman and then beat her to death with a crowbar.

Posted in: Ohtani, Betts and Freeman open with consecutive HRs, and Dodgers beat Diamondbacks 8-6 See in context

No Triple Crown for Ohtani but he has a comfortable NL lead in home runs, runs scored, and OPS. Tied for the lead in RBI’s and a slight lead in total hits. His 3rd MVP is on the horizon.

Maybe he’d have better luck with the Nigerian Prince.

Posted in: Ohtani throws off a mound for 1st time since elbow surgery last fall See in context

Ten wins and 40 home runs and he’s the MVP again.

Posted in: Ohtani hits walk-off grand slam to join 40-40 club, as Dodgers beat Rays 7-3 See in context

Let me clarify the rules for you, collegepark. A pitcher can attempt a 3rd pickoff, but if it isn’t successful the runner gets 2nd base. So nobody is leading off the bag 15 feet after two attempts.

45-45 has never been done, let’s start with that.

No mention that Kershaw is back and pitching well.

Posted in: Ohtani hits 39th homer and Kershaw pitches Dodgers to 2-1 win over slumping Cardinals See in context

Acuna really had a career year last season. Too bad he had a season ending injury the first month this year. Ohtani could be the first 45-45 guy.

Posted in: Ohtani hits 39th homer and Kershaw pitches Dodgers to 2-1 win over slumping Cardinals See in context

Nice sentiment, stormcrow, but Ronald Acuna had 41 home runs and 73 stolen bases last season.

Posted in: Japan to survey Alaskan island in hopes of recovering WWII dead See in context

@Ossan, as a Pacific Islander who was born in the Trust Territory we were never issued US passports. We had Trust Territory passports. Guam was different because it was never part of the Trust Territory.

The park failed by employing humans instead of real ghosts.

@Beer, she didn’t bring the heat but she had good location and a nasty curve.

Posted in: MLB batting average near half-century low and velocity at all-time high See in context

Ichiro’s first three seasons only one pitcher in eight threw above 93mph. His last three seasons it was one in three. Interesting, to me anyway, is that Babe Ruth never had a single season of 100 strikeouts.

Should be 30 years for each victim.

@Entuojo, only 2 hits but he did score 4 runs. Btw, Stanton went 0-14 for the Yankees in that series.

Parents should be charged, since they were supposed to keep an eye on him. That’s even more ridiculous than the toothless verbal warning.
