History teaches us that petty tyrants are mostly forgotten — but great art lives forever. RIP Rob Reiner. You will be missed.

In mid-December 1944, Germany launched its last major offensive of WWII. The intense fighting that ensued became known as the Battle of the Bulge — and one of the bloodiest battles of the war. Among those fighting was future Hall of Fame pitcher Warren Spahn. #wwii #mlb #MakeNazisTheBadGuysAgain

Regardless of the final outcome, this year’s MLB playoffs have been epic. Thank you. Also, a big thank you to Japan, Mexico, Venezuela, DR, Cuba, South Korea and Canada for making America’s game so profoundly meaningful.

Censorship is so 1984. Read for your rights.
Today kicks off #BannedBooksWeek, and this year's theme reminds us that the right to read belongs to all of us, that censorship has no place in contemporary society, and that we must defend our rights.

#otd in 1953, Hank Bauer scores the winning run in Game 6 of the World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers. The victory lifted the Bronx Bombers to their fifth consecutive title — a record that still stands. Bauer also saw extensive combat duty as a Marine Raider during WWII. #worldseries #wwii
