The Mets getting much, much, much more aggressive with their dynamic ticket pricing. Asking $300 to sit in last row of left field bleachers vs Yankees. I've sat in this section many times and never seen face value above $75. (Also spotted Section 123 for $1000 each !).

Bezos did a town hall when he bought WaPo. I remember Bob Woodward got the first question: “What are your intentions for this paper?” Bezos said the plan was to sell a “bundle,” a subscription that would draw different people with different content. I got to ask a follow-up…

I asked: “Online it seems a lot harder to monetize serious content than clickbait, if the bundle doesn’t turn a profit are you willing to subsidize the paper?” And I remember Bezos finishing his response without quite answering the question.

This is 80% of the reason I’ve never done TSA Pre, despite spouse and colleague annoyance. (Privacy is the other 20%)

“We used to all stand in the same line…and eat the same soggy hot dogs.”

Former Red Sox teammates are mourning Mike Greenwell, who died Thursday at 62.
"You always wanted to be around him — I truly enjoyed my time with him," said Dwight Evans. "He was a gamer in every sense of the word, and he will be deeply missed."

I hate to say anything nice about the Yankees, but the low nets down the baselines make for a much clearer view than other parks like Citifield

When it was being tested in the minors I got to call (and throw) some pitches to an ABS system. It definitely changed the vibe on the field so I can see why they'd use a challenge system rather than pure "robo umps"

Tens of thousands of people in China are barred from leaving their province and sometimes even their homes by the world’s largest surveillance apparatus.
An AP investigation finds much of this technology came from U.S. companies. apnews.com/article/chinese-s…

I was about 10 when Giants shortstop Jose Uribe flipped me a foul ball and a 20-something guy reached over my shoulder and snatched it a few inches above my glove. The surrounding fans booed and heckled him until he gave it to me. Still have it, only MLB ball I ever got
PRO-TIP: If you're the jerk who snatched Majchrzak's cap out of the child's hand I'd get out in front of this. Find out how to get the hat back to the kid and make a public apology. This won't end well unless you make it right quickly.
