Joe Pepitone Suing Hall of Fame for $1 Million Over Mantle's Bat
Joe Pepitone says he loaned Mickey Mantle his bat, and Mantle used that bat to become the first player to hit 500 home runs. Pepitone says he put the bat in his locker after the game and it mysteriously disappeared. Now he wants his bat back, and $1 million bucks too.

This business thinks it solved the post-covid problem of knowing which co-workers you can approach and when you should keep your distance.
