As long as you don't inhale you're ok. Otherwise it can st

Don't blue jays do that too?

If it's within their territory but they get that rep from crows. Blue Jay will mimic crow calls to scare away larger birds (other birds use it as a warning) and because of that they get blamed for a lot of things crows do

now this is arguing balls and strikes

That was VERY well done!!

Once saw a crow fly down from a tree with a good sized starling that looked like it was just about old enough to leave the nest. it landed in the road, killed the bird and flew off with it. Several starlings were trying to attack it but the crow just flew off with the bird like it was no biggie.

I love watching mockingbirds attacking a crow to get it away from their nest

Kinda sorta, but not exactly.

That exchange in the bball forum made no sense. You did get the answer though.

Mockingbirds have a running battle with our German Shepherd. It's pretty fun.

Sounds like something a crow would say, Rish

I actually like this rule. Good protection for players with incentive

I disagree….. that’s a stupid rule…. If the guy doesn’t go the full five then he shouldn’t get credit for the win.

His team assumed the lead in the inning in which he left and never relinquished the lead.

A starter has to go 5 innings to get the win. In this case, the team notified the official scorer that Tidwell was on a pitch count, and he was awarded the win even though they took him out 1/3 of an inning early.

Well that is bizarre. I love baseball. It’s so quirky.

Did not have “birding” on my VN bingo card today. That’s a new one for this forum.

More of travel than looking for anything specific. For birds most that I can find in Chesapeake I can find the outer banks (which I have). Another thing is we're getting a lot more shore birds in Tennessee that shouldn't be here and I want to compare water samples, temps, micro/macro species so on

We'd be good friends lol. Let me know if you come out this way!

Okay this got me…

Needed to be done. Hernandez is garbage behind the plate.

Y’all are trying to make me a baseball fan!

Jump in! The water’s fine!!!!!

Literally laughing out loud.

I never understand why a pitcher is ineligible for the win just because he doesn’t go 5. I can understand why he doesn’t automatically get the win, but ineligible doesn’t make sense to me.

If he leaves with the lead and his team never gives it up, why should another pitcher who goes as little as 1/3 inning get the win?

Hey broham, what is the date again for your hopenis surgery? Just want to make sure we all lift you up that day.

One of my favorites is the Killdeer, I’ve got one nested in my backyard now. I’m always amazed how they act injured trying to lure you away from their nest.

Back in the day…… it use to mean something to be a starting pitcher…. They were the big deal on a staff….. a quality start was considered 6 innings and you couldn’t win if you couldn’t even muster 5 innings…. Now some teams use relievers to pitch one inning at a time for an entire game…. Still if the rule says he must complete five innings to get the win….. it’s beyond silly to allow a coach to just say he was on a pitch count so give him the win anyways…. I miss pitchers like Nolan Ryan who once threw 235 pitches in a game.
