The New York Mets, who have been dealing with attrition all season long, took a major hit Monday when Marcus Semien’s hip flexor strain was officially classified as a Grade 3 injury, the most serious classification for a muscle tear.

Before 2023, if you were a fan of both an AL and an NL team that were not a part of the same divisions of their respective leagues, you would be lucky if you saw them play against each other once every three years. Therefore, the Minnesota Twins rarely played the Colorado Rockies.

The Dog Days of summer in the Northern Hemisphere don't officially begin until the rising of Sirius, the "dog star." This is usually mid-to-late July, and we can thank the Greeks for the canid construction.
