As a Yankees fan, I've grown to intensely dislike the Astros. They are good, smug, and have an edge about them that really makes it hard to lose to them, as the Yankees have.
I am not surprised about the recent revelation that the Astros developed a sophisticated form of cheating, which entailed using a centerfield camera to capture the catcher's signs to the pitcher, and then banging on a hidden trash can twice to alert the batter to the type of pitch that was coming (usually a breaking-ball).
One of the Yankee farm teams (the Staten Island Yankees) has decided to take revenge by trolling the Astros with a delightful give-away program. (s.t. John Siston)
If you’re paying any attention – at all – to Major League Baseball these days, you’re well aware of the Houston Astros’ blatant and relatively appalling use of technology to steal signs through the use of cameras, monitors, text messages and … banging loudly on trash cans before certain pitches – including their at-bats during the World Series.
As punishment, the Astros just lost their GM and manager to a one-year suspension (they’ve both since been fired) in addition to a $5M fine (the max allowed by the league office) and a loss of their first and second round pick in both the 2020 and 2021 and draft. Frankly, I believe that’s a stern, but just response by MLB, even if it comes up short in a few ways.
Of course, the league isn’t the only one punishing the Astros for their misdeeds. The rest of baseball is taking care of that just fine: https://twitter.com/SIYanks/status/1217180321973776385?s=20
Yep. The New York Yankees Class-A affiliate (the Staten Island Yankees) are hosting the Astros’ affiliate (the Tri-City Valley Cats) on September 3rd this season, and they’ll be handing out mini TRASH CANS AS THE GIVEAWAY!!

Absolutely brilliant and great pay-back!

Here's the audio from this morning's sermon: "Preach the Word" -- 2 Timothy 4:1-8

Simonetta Carr's short essay on B. B. Warfield's circle of friends was posted at reformation21. Well worth a read.
B. B. Warfield – Not a Solitary Theologian
Due to a need for brevity, many articles on Benjamin Breckinridge Warfield (1851-1921) focus on his theology and his devotion to his wife, whose illness kept the couple close to home. Because of this, he is often seen as a solitary man leading an uneventful life. This view is compounded by the fact that we have a very limited access to his letters (the scholar who holds his correspondence is currently working on a long-due biography).
In reality, while it’s true that Warfield spent much time at home and in his study, he was deeply invested in the lives of those around him: students, family, and friends.
Young Warfield
Warfield grew up in a farm near Lexington, Kentucky, learning about his father’s work as cattle raiser, collecting butterflies, moths, and rocks, memorizing the Westminster Catechisms (with Scriptural proofs), complaining about having to study Greek, reading books, and dreaming to become a scientist.
At 17 years of age, he began his studies at the College of New Jersey (later known as Princeton University), where he was generally a good student. Like other boys his age, he got into his share of mischief, most famously a fist fight with another student who was offended by an unflattering picture Warfield drew of him during a lecture. This incident, without serious consequences, earned him the nickname of “pugilist.”
