This should go over well.
Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. has partnered with Kalshi, making him the first MLB player to venture into prediction markets.
Kalshi is also reportedly in talks with MLB for a leaguewide deal.

And the only hit was an infield single.
The Braves went 1-for-23 (.043) with runners in scoring position in the series against the Dodgers.
That's the second-lowest batting average with RISP in a postseason series in MLB history (min. 20 AB with RISP), behind only the Dodgers in the 1966 World Series (0-for-22).

Alabama State has moved its Saturday home football game vs. Florida A&M up to 11 a.m. Friday due to #Isaias.
It's also homecoming for the Hornets, so all associated activities have been postponed.

This week's Alabama-Georgia game brings to mind the 1988 "Hurricane Bowl" between Alabama and Texas A&M. Due to the approaching Hurricane Gilbert, the game was postponed from its original September date and played in early December. The weather wound up being beautiful in College Station on the original date, though.
Wrote about the game — which included an epic performance by Alabama's Derrick Thomas — a couple of years ago.

The storm is really a downer. One cancellation already- the National Shrimp Festival in Gulf Shores. We'll have posts throughout the day @aldotcom . I can't imagine ArtWalk occurring in Mobile, but no announcement yet. It's one of the two largest ArtWalks of the year.

Troy’s 437 rushing yards were the most in a regular-season Tuesday game since at least 1996 (four others were higher, but all were bowl games).

MID-MORNING UPDATE: Some notes...
*Isaias is still expected to make landfall on the Alabama Gulf Coast late Friday night with winds of 90-95 mph.
*Storm surge flooding is likely on the coast along and east of the point of landfall.
*Impacts inland during the day Saturday include heavy rain and flooding (2-4 inches for West Alabama), strong winds (40/45 mph gusts possible across West Alabama), and a few isolated tornadoes (highest tornado threat is over the southern half of the state.
*Models continue to trend toward a faster forward motion. This is good news concerning the Alabama/Georgia football game in Tuscaloosa, and the Zach Bryan concert in Auburn. Most reliable models now suggest the rain will be ending sometime between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m. with diminishing wind.
Will have another update with more details a little later this morning.

Donnie Smith with a strip sack and Makel Green covers it up. Huge play from a defense that was REELING. Smith looked to be shaken up on the play, though. That's eight straight games with a sack for him.
