Joke works better when you find out who it is. To me, it just looked like a random Kardashian or something

Eh, she @ed him only in the original tweet so the only people who would have saw it were him and anyone who follows both of them. But at the end of the day, any of us that have public social media are just posting shit for attention, don't see how this makes it more like she's trying to be a reality star person than the average twitterer.

This is really bad anyway, but for a second I thought it was the guy who got hit in the head with foul balls.

Umpire Eric Cooper passed. I had known him since minors. There was a game in ‘11 he ran me for arguing BB & K. I headed to the dugout but came back on the field “What do you want now” he asked. I said, “The sad thing is I don’t see you getting any better” and walked away. After that, including this season when I was back in the dugout, he’d always ask me “Am I getting any better, Charlie”. We always had a good laugh together. He was good, he was a pro, and he loved what he did. My condolences to his family. Rest easy my friend.

A follow-up: this was officially announced. The Frontier League is adding 5 of the 6 Can-Am teams, leaving out the Ottawa Champions

Umpire Rob Drake, on Twitter, has threatened to buy an AR-15 and start a civil war if Trump is impeached.

In the meantime, Curt Schilling has made his Twitter account private.

Topps leaked the new Brewers logo. It's a modernized version of the "mb" glove logo (more webbing, baseball stitches slightly different) in a navy roundel with "MILWAUKEE" above and "BREWERS" below
