New York Yankees star Aaron Judge hit his 62nd home run of the season on Oct. 5 in Arlington, Tex. With the solo shot, he passed Roger Maris and became the most prolific single-season home run hitter who did not play during baseball's steroid era.

Just about every baseball fan has experienced the generational connections of baseball within their family - Shorey knows he has. But on such occasion, he shared his love of baseball with twenty- two people he had not met until two days before. By the end of the week, the connections inspired by baseball forged a special bond within the group. For him, baseball is about connections. It connects him with his childhood; it connects him with his parents and grandfather, his brother and sisters, childhood friends, Little League, and trips to County Stadium in Milwaukee to watch his favorite player, Henry Aaron. It connects him with his recent past and present; this includes his wife and daughters, friends, colleagues, fantasy baseball, attending games ranging from t- ball, to collegiate, the minor leagues, and the majors. Baseball connects him with the country's history and culture. The game has definitely impacted the course of US history.

Limited data are available to guide the timing of palliative care involvement in the treatment of cancer. We describe the referral patterns of inpatient palliative care consultations(IPCC) in advanced cancer patients in a tertiary care center. A retrospective review was performed of IPCC for cancer patients from January 1, 2014, to December 31, 2014. Descriptive statistics are reported. IPCCs were requested for 245 cancer inpatients, of which 130 were male (53.1%) and 115 (46.9%) were female; 128 (52.2%) were Caucasian, 114 (46.5%) were African American, and 3 (1.2%) were another race. Of the 245 patients, 79 (32.2%) were newly diagnosed during the current admission, and the remaining 146 (67.8%) had been diagnosed previously. Fifty-seven (23.3%) patients were admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) during hospitalization. Of the 39 patients (15.9%) who died during their hospital stay, 34 (87.0%) had an ICU stay during the hospitalization or died in the ICU. The most common malignancies were lung (71; 29.0%), pancreatic-biliary (33; 13.4%), lymphoma and leukemia (22; 8.9%), hepatocellular (18; 7.3%), head and neck (16; 6.5%), and upper gastrointestinal tract(GI) (16; 6.5%). Our data show that 15.9% of terminally ill cancer patients with IPCC died in the hospital, the majority of whom died in the ICU. This was likely due to delays in the initiation of outpatient palliative care consultation, leading to an increased strain on tertiary referral centers. Our study highlights a racial disparity in the rate of IPCC in African Americans, compared to historical data.

Not surprisingly, Dan Mason and the Rochester Red Wings would be ahead of the curve, celebrating everyone from fabled Wings players such as Cal Ripken Jr., Luke Easter and Joe Altobelli to goodwill ambassadors like Uncle Phil Salamone, organist Fred Costello and Conehead the roving beer vendor. [...]it wasn't until 1999 that bobbleheads would become popular again. Mason estimates the Wings have created between 100 and 125 bobbleheads through the years with four more (Darren & Dusty Baker, Dylan Crews, Bruce the Bat Dog and James Wood) scheduled for this season.
