I assumed that the outs mentioned were from the beginning of the play when the batter swung.
By listing zero as the first number in the quoted sentence, the poster had to be assuming number of outs at the beginning of the play. But, you are correct. At the time of the tag/send, there were 2 outs.

Had there been zero, or one out, then the send would have been bad. Being there were two outs, the send was perfectly fine.

There was 1 out. If it was two outs, the pop up would have ended the inning with no throw home necessary. The send resulted in an inning ending double play.

Did not know this or about the charging station. Thanks guys.
FYI
Thermapen Ones in Green and Yellow are currently on sale for $74, all other colors are $115. My wife ordered me one as my original Thermapen died a couple of weeks ago.

Sounds like a Gemini for DTV Streaming Service. I switched from having DTV satellite, since 1995, to DTV Streaming in February. The ‘box’ for that is a small dongle thing and the remote is all gray with an ‘Apps’ button in the bottom right.
ETA: streaming DVR is cloud based. Streaming service has been great so far.

re: What can you tell my about Oak Forest in Amite

The guy in charge is from Amite and went to school there from the info they gave me.
The headmaster is from Amite, Drew Misita. The other guy being talked about is Phil Junkins. He is the head football coach and I believe Dean of Students. He is not the headmaster. Misita was the previous head coach and decided he couldn’t do both jobs and give 100% to each.
ETA: I was associated with OFA closely for several years. The headmaster/dean of students arrangement was current then. They also had an elementary principal. I think they may have changed to having a HS principal. So, the Junkins guy could be a principal. However, Misita is the guy in charge of the entire campus. Everyone answers to him. He answers to the board.

My wife is the same way. She’s a pro with meds and insurance. She’s also a decent driver when my knees have been pumped full of Euflexxa and are stiffer than normal.

I inherited a mid-60s Belgian Sweet 16 from my uncle. Lots of rabbits and squirrels were taken with it before it was passed down. It and ‘my first gun’, a Remington 1100 20ga Christmas present from my dad, are my favorite guns.
I gifted the 20ga to my son when he passed his hunter safety course. He’ll get the Sweet 16 when I pass.

We are about 2 months in on a Tempurpedic LuxeBreeze Hybrid medium. We bought an adjustable frame to go with it. We also added some Tempurpedic pillows.
It took me about a week to get used to it. My wife and I both think it’s one of the best purchases we’ve made in the last few years. I’m no longer waking up with lower back pain.

Can second Anna Maria. Go most years and will be there for 2 weeks in June-July.
re: Who still has directv satellite?

Have had Directv satellite for 30 years. Switched to Directv streaming yesterday. The satellite service remains active for 14 days while I test out the streaming version. If I don’t like my new service, I can stop the migration process and go back to satellite.
So far, one thing I like about streaming is that you can reference live channels by their satellite number. SEC Network is 611 for streaming and satellite.

A great tribute to your father. Lost my dad in 2006. Miss him every day. Best man I’ve ever known.
A+
I was lucky to have a very kind man as my father. He was very tough at times but never mean. He would help others before he would think of helping himself. I’ve been able to pass his lessons on to my son. My father fought so hard to live another couple of years so that my newborn boy would remember him. My now 22 year old will tell us things today that he remembers about his paw paw. He was 3 when my dad died.
My only regret regarding my father is that his COPD rendered him unable to speak in his last few days. Because of this, I could never understand his final words to me that he was urgently trying to say. All I could do is tell him not to worry and that I could take care of whatever came our way. This still haunts me today.
I am still blessed to have had such wonderful parents and aunts and uncles.

I bought the same TV a few months ago. It has a great picture and really excels at night. The glare during the day is very noticeable when you are thinking about it. If I just flop down and start watching something, it’s fine but if I notice the glare I have a hard time not concentrating on it. I have a large window directly behind the main viewing area and a small window 90 degrees to the right of that one.
I did a side by side comparison between it and the G5 at Best Buy. My older eyes could not tell a difference in image quality.
It is fairly heavy. My son and I were able to put it up easily though.

I'd say most of the mixed reviews come from them
Hell, they cut my road bore Spectrum line when they came through. Glad to hear you’re getting good service though. No one around here seems to know anything about them. I have not heard anything from them even though I’ve had a fairly large junction box on the road in front of my house for 2 or 3 months.
Most in fridge. 1 stick out in a butter dish. Kerrygold in a butter bell.
