Which holiday do the Jews not play on, Rosh Hashanah or Yom Kippur?

Both, I think. But Sandy Koufax famously refused to pitch on Yom Kippur once which happened to fall during the World Series.

Yom Kippur is a bigger deal, right? I am obviously not Jewish but that is what I've heard in the past...

Per Wiki, Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year for Jews. It also is potentially a bigger deal in a baseball context because it falls later than Rosh Hashanah, and thus may fall during the postseason.

They're debating on 97.5 about Braun v. Reyes on whether Braun will play tonight.

Terry Collins said it was Jose Reyes' decision to bunt and leave game.

LOL

Reyes indicated pregame that he expected about 15 family members and friends at his home on Long Island on Wednesday night to watch the Brewers game.

"I've got a bunch of friends coming over," Reyes said. "I have a lot of people call me from the Dominican, too. They said if I win that, they're going to do a parade in my town in the Dominican. I had a bunch of friends call me. I said, 'OK. You need to wait first and see what happens with the other guy.'"

"I've got a bunch of friends coming over," Reyes said. "I have a lot of people call me from the Dominican, too. They said if I win that, they're going to do a parade in my town in the Dominican. I had a bunch of friends call me. I said, 'OK. You need to wait first and see what happens with the other guy.'"

[Francesa] says they will be announced in a week but went around the ballpark and said.

Foul line distance will remain the same, from the caesar's sign to the citi sign, that entire wall will be moved in, 10' or so and the wall will be shortened to 8', and new seats will be placed on the top.

Right center will be moved in, from 415' all the way to maybe 390'

Mo Zone wall will be brought down to 8' but they won't get rid of it entirely because if they make it even, it's like 350', they will bring it in though
