LOL, walking in a run is the about the most hair pulling frustration you can inflict on a baseball fan. This is for baby shark.

It's probably BS, but some twitter buzz that over in China, Winnie the PoohXi had an aneurysm amidst coup rumors. May or may not be living in interesting times.

Baby formula shortage
As for the argument of just make your own formula, from the article you can see how parents would be stressed by conflicting information: On social media, recipes are circulating for homemade baby formula — something the American Academy of Pediatrics strongly advises against, calling it unsafe. The academy also cautions against diluting formula to make it last longer, which will not meet infants’ nutritional needs.

Baby formula shortage
BS. It's a huge story but some want it hidden because of where some (not all) of the blame points at. The FDA started investigating the issue last Fall. They shut down the plant in Feb and only now will allow a limited restart, announced 2 days ago after Congress started complaining. Despite learning a month ago that none of the bacterial strains that started the shutdown can be linked to the plant. And the FDA had been way behind on much of their inspection efforts across the board because of Covid excuses. Buy some damn KN-95 masks and do your job. Further exacerbated by Fed restrictions on importing baby formula, expanded over multiple administrations, despite many of those countries meeting or exceeding fed safety standards. Why not use an executive order to declare an emergency and temporarily waive some restrictions? Or quickly get Congress to pass a measure if that is required? Instead the House has scheduled a hearing 2 weeks from now. Too busy with important matters like next week's UFO hearings. Too much concentration of supply from just a few plants. Some specialty formulas only produced in this plant. Why the hell hasn't the feds treated medical and critical supplies sourcing as a national security issue? It's not inconceivable that Russian or Iranian or any other terrorist assets could sabotage such a facility. We've only had 21 years of warning to look into such matters, and in fact did create such working groups, but the follow through hasn't been there. While not a major cause of the shortages, it doesn't help that with such known supply disruption issues, the feds have being buying up batches of formula to deal with the huge, and likely record, influx of illegal aliens (possibly 6 million this year.) I dunno, maybe take a pause and enforce the border a bit for a few months until we catch up with some of the supply shortages across the spectrum?

Kinda wish we didn't waste Neris here, I would have kept Stanek in. (To be fair, none of the teams I've managed have ever made it to the World Series.)

Maybe we did go to the hotel early, our offense looks like they got a very good night's sleep.

Seeing tweets that there's still a lot of lightning to the west, so maybe that's why.

Welp, guess I don't know the rules. Similar risk of tornadic storms tomorrow afternoon and evening, maybe as early as 4pm. Might have been better to play through the sprinkles tonight. Allegedly:

Possible tornado passing to the north of the stadium. Line is moving so could clear within 30 minutes. Ought to be able to resume after that, looks like mostly just sprinkles behind the line for another hour or so. Would be a resumption, not a start over (but need to finish 5 innings tonight.)

Wasn't a homer, but still a hell of a catch. Tornado warning now less than 10 miles from the stadium. Edit: And umps call the delay right after Target Field went under a severe thunderstorm warning.- 2022 Houston Astros Thread
For now these are small, separated popcorn showers, so they could probably keep playing through it, but at some point they need to clear the stands ahead of the main line, because it has been continuous multiple tornado warnings and some of that is tracking towards Target Field. Doesn't look like they'll have time to get through the 5th, and the Twins surely don't want that, so could be over an hour rain delay.- 2022 Houston Astros Thread

3 tornado warnings in those storms.- 2022 Houston Astros Thread
