Hmm, possible reasons baseball's not more globally popular:

- the rules are complicated

- it requires some amount of equipment to play (bats, gloves, balls, etc.) which might not be cheap

- it's slow paced

- in parts of the world, there's already a popular bat-based sport: cricket

Nathan Eovaldi will start Game 1 of the World Series tonight.

He's 4-0 this postseason, and with a win tonight, Eovaldi would become the 1st pitcher ever to win each of his first 5 starts of a postseason.

The Rangers calling themselves "Texas" when there's another team in the state is the most Texan shit possible

Life getting awfully interesting in the AL West:
Seattle Mariners 8,
Texas Rangers 0.
4th inning.
Houston Astros lead the Arizona Diamondbacks 2-0 in the 8th.

September in KC and we're 58-103, positively the worst club out there.
