Baseball mascots Tsubakuro the swallow (of the Yakult Swallows) and Doala the koala (of the Chunichi Dragons) had a bread-eating contest today. As neither is capable of eating, they just stood silently looking at the bread, and the result was 0-0.

In this bullpen era--9 IP, 9 Pitchers--one stat I want to see every day is how many times the manager "dry humps" a reliever--gets him up and sits him down without entering the game. We'd get a clear picture of BP-eager managers who may be over their heads and endager Ps

Batters have wOBA of under .200 on Batted Balls hit at 294-328 feet.
When we look at first half results, some batters are sensational, as they hit those in the gap. Others are terrible, hitting right to the outfielders. Can some batters "place" the balls better than others?
