Ivan Rodriguez was called up to the big leagues ON HIS WEDDING DAY, so he and his wife got married on his AA field, flew to Chicago, and Pudge threw out 2 runners in his MLB debut (1991)

The Padres used to play the Mission Impossible theme song when the opposing team brought in a new pitcher.
Whenever that happened, Doug Bochtler would steal a drink from a fan near the bullpen. Amazing.

In 1995 Ichiro visited the US to see what it was like before coming to MLB. He wanted to meet two people while he was there: Ken Griffey Jr. and Michael Jordan. Here he is, incredibly starstruck, meeting MJ.

This is so so so good. Francisco Cervelli frames a pitch that he doesn't catch, gets the strike call as the ball rolls to the backstop, and immediately asks the ump for a new one.

Worst thing about the Astros scandal is it ruined people’s ability to appreciate the nuances of legal sign stealing and recognition of pitch grips/tipping

I just found my favorite baseball story ever.
In 1893, a batter fouled off a pitch and broke the last bat at the park, so he walked over to a woodpile and picked up an axe. Next pitch, he swung, cut the ball in half, and half of it went over the fence.
The game ended 2.5 to 2.

This is incredible. Josh Donaldson just noticed something that gave away Greg Holland's slider so he moved up in the box. Holland stepped off, came back with the slider, and Donaldson hit it a mile. Next level stuff.
