Thomas Hatch has been nothing short of amazing this season for Oklahoma State. The Cowboys ace had a scoreless innings streak of 25 entering the third and decisive game between OSU and Arizona for a trip to the College World Series Finals.

We’re most interested in the section that deals with Trump’s childhood love of baseball, and the description of what kind of player he was. From WaPo: By sixth grade, Donald’s power as a right-handed hitter was enough that fielders shifted to left field when he batted. “If he had hit the…

The two teams—made up of 22 Democrats and 34 Republicans—will face off at Nationals Park today at 7:05 PM, and at only $10 a ticket, the game bills itself as a “fiscally responsible” evening out. Washingtonian asked writer Nathaniel Rakich, who has covered the event for…

Last summer, an independent-league baseball team in California called the Sonoma Stompers entrusted its season to us, two writers with backgrounds in baseball statistics.
