...bottom of the fourth with a two-run home run by cleanup hitter Bill Scott, but Harvard regained its lead in the next inning as Karp began to lose control. He misfielded a playable ball of the bat of sophomore second baseman Faiz Shakir, and he walked the next batter, Harvard tri-captain Jeff Bridich.

...cannot hold McSorley legally accountable for actions that his sport, his profession and his employer tacitly encourage. In football, we don't prosecute a cornerback for blindsiding a receiver and driving his head into the ground, nor do we place charges against a pitcher in baseball for beaning a batter in the head. Some might say these comparisons are unreasonable, claiming McSorley did what no one else in their right mind would have done.

...Spin magazine that she deemed unfair. The complete title: "When the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king/ What he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight/ And he'll win the whole thing 'fore he enters the ring/ There's no body to batter when your mind is your might/ So when you go solo, you hold your own hand/ And remember that depth is the greatest of heights/ And if you know where you stand, then you know where to land/ And if you fall it won't matter, cuz you'll know...
