I will cheer against any team that tries to outright buy a pennant (Mets).  My pitching coach said Ohtani will sign for north of $600 million.

Sports Reference bought the game quickly and then created versions for other sports.

May be an image of 2 people and text that says 'Nolan Ûyan was the only pitcher to face the last 3 single season home run leaders... Roger Maris, Mark McGwire and Barry Bonds. They were 5-28 against him with zero home runs. Astros'

An odd thing about soccer, if a ball is kicked in the air on a curve and goes OB, in the air, and comes back in, it's ruled out of bounds even if it lands fair.  The position of a player playing the ball is not relevant, the player can be OB and touch the ball on the line, and it's still in play.

I always thought its the spot of the ball touching the ground that determines fair or faul

This is saying even though the ball touches the ground in faul territory part of the ball was over fair territory when touched by the fielder so its a fair ball

Thats a first for me

Imagine a fly ball just clips the foul pole, it's a home run.

If any part of the ball is over any part of the foul line at the time of first touch, or if the ball touches the base, it's a fair ball.
