Once again, the final of the World Baseball Classic delivered a game worth remembering. This time, it was Venezuela breaking through against Team USA, with a win bound to resonate throughout the country.

The Venezuelans defeated the United States, 3-2, in Miami on Tuesday, capping off a tournament that showed baseball at its best. Tears were flowing as soon as Venezuela closer Daniel Palencia’s fastball reached the glove of Salvador Perez.

I'm not sure if anyone else is seeing this recently, and it may well be server-side issues. My feed will only load what appear to be new posts and then I receive an error that more posts couldn't be loaded. If I refresh I eventually get down to only one or two posts displayed.

Anyone else seeing this and maybe have some insight? I haven't seen any other posts with more information yet.

Edit: Right after I post this I see someone else did make a post about the same issue. Any idea who we need to alert that this is happening?

A bow-tie wearing duck has been injured in a drunken pub brawl with a local dog in Chulmleigh, Devon.

The booze-loving bird, affectionately named Star, was enjoying a pint in The Old Courthouse Inn with his handler, Barrie Hayman, when Hayman's canine Meggie sparked a bar brawl.

Star was left with injuries to his beak after the fight.

"Star pushed his luck too far and Meggie snapped - splitting Star's bottom beak right down the middle," Hayman, 69, told the Cheddar Valley Gazette.

"He gave her a stare, then promptly stood on her back. It was not pretty and not nice. We were so scared we would lose Star.

...

Hayman has cared for Star ever since he was a chick, carrying him around in his pocket. Once the duckling grew up, he developed a taste for real ale and started following his owner to the pub.

"He just won't leave me and so we go everywhere together," Hayman said. "I've not trained him to follow me. He just seems to like it and he is one fantastic duck.

"He loves to come to the pub, where everyone loves him. He is such a personality and attracts so much attention."
