I’m at a (very) minor-league baseball game, and a player just got hit by a pitch for the second time. He walked toward the mound. Both teams followed. Someone pulled him back. It was tense. The guy in the sound booth, who apparently has a sense of humor, started playing “War” by Edwin Starr.

Sounds so much like "Brockmire" with Hank Azaria. Beautiful.

No, the Isotopes are AAA. I’m at a Pecos League game

This is the lowest-end baseball I have ever attended. The ball field is in a city park. When someone hits a home run, they pass a hat to tip the player. I love it so much

It’s glorious. The kids all go run the bases after the fourth inning with the dragon mascot who used to be named after a local funeral parlor.

Worth adding: the funeral parlor dropped the sponsorship so the team kept the mascot but changed its name

They encourage kids to grab foul balls and return them to the office
