Can @fandueltv.bsky.social make it any easier for me to gamble on an Angels-Rangers game I’m watching on the FanDuel Network — the obscene QR code taking up the bottom right half of the screen? Is that for fans watching in a sports bar so they can aim and click from a mile away?

The NINE baseball spring training conference attendees in Tempe, Ariz., welcomed me as the opening night speaker about an appreciation of Vin Scully. The night was perfectly eloquent. Including a stop at the Hundred Mile Brewing Company afterward with nephew and soon-to-be-dad Steven.
