MLB's Arizona Fall League is experimenting with rules that regulate the positioning of outfielders in an effort to increase the number of balls in the gap. Outfielders under these rules are playing closer to the lines than normal, creating much bigger swaths of grass in the alleyways in left-center and right-center field. FanGraphs was first to report the news. BA's Josh Norris and J.J. Cooper have more: buff.ly/Y0w0SHz

Am thinking of starting new university: Texas Institute of Technology & Science

A Texas man walked up to a Bank of America ATM and found a bag containing $128,514 in cash sitting right on top of the machine, along with another bag containing 19 checks. Instead of taking it, he noticed information on the bag that made him think it might belong to a nearby Chick-fil-A. So this dude actually drove over there trying to return $128,000. 😂 The restaurant told him it wasn’t theirs, so he called the police. Turns out a Brinks technician had accidentally left the money behind after servicing the ATM. Police counted it and every single dollar was still there. I gotta give this guy credit. Finding $20 on the ground is one thing. Finding a bag with $128,000 in cash and immediately trying to track down the owner is a whole different test of character. Be honest: Would you have returned the $128,000? 😂

This is what happens to the great game of baseball when you put pocket protector nerds who never wore a jock in charge of how the teams play the game! Just punch in number, analytics and data into a computer, and nevermind the human element…

I was Week 1 2026 years old when I learned a quarterback’s intention to throw the ball forward can turn this into an incompletion. I … don’t get it.

Just found his on my car, what should I do?

Seeing a different 100-mph arm every AB and playing against a global talent pool is definitely more difficult on a per-AB basis than seeing the same guys over and over and over for an entire season. But you know what else is hard? The train ride from New York to St. Louis, poorly-manicured fields, playing center when the fence is 461 feet from home plate and there are obstacles in play, and the lack of modern medicine, training, equipment, nutrition, rehabilitation, load management, and so on. It's a different game with different challenges. Hitting a baseball has never been harder, but existing in real life from one day to the next has never been easier. My hot take is this: I think the players of a century ago would have a much easier time adapting to the baseball-specific challenges of the modern game than today's players would have adapting to the general lifestyle challenges of the mid-20th century.
