David Ortiz took 17 years to finally do this one thing. No one in attendance will soon forget.

That's a 78-mph curveball that Ortiz poked the other way. Not a bad piece of hitting, but that's why Ortiz is making $14 million this season.

What Ortiz is not paid for is his ability to steal bases, since he'd only swiped 11 in 1,860 games career games. Wednesday night, he made that 12.

That's now one for every 155 games he's played — and this was the first time he'd ever stolen third base.

5 Easy And Adorable Ways To Organize Your Cords

≪ Previous: Amazing Rescues — And Why They Matter

We could all use a stylish way to keep your cords from getting all tangled in your bag.

Everyone knows that tangled up power cords and cables are seriously obnoxious. Here are five pretty ways to solve that problem.

Kim from This Is Knockout created this simple but effective system for headphone cables.

What you’ll need: two wooden clothes pegs, all-purpose glue, washi tape in colours or patterns of your choice, and your headphones.

Step 1: Get your pegs right.

First, you need to check the pegs are the right size for your headphones. Open one of the pegs and clamp around the wire just below the jack plug of your headphones. If the jack plug doesn’t fall through the end, you’ve got a winner. If it does, you’ll need to get some slightly smaller pegs.

These are all the tips and tricks you’ll need to make corner-store flowers look like a million bucks.

When perusing the market or corner store, make sure the flowers you're buying don't already have one foot in the grave.

Check closely to see if they're beginning to wilt.

Ideally, there should still be a few green buds in the mix, and petals should feel firm and have no brown edges.

Keep an eye out for blooms that fit one of these three descriptions:

- Branchier things, like lilacs, lilies and cherry blossoms
- Attention grabbers, sometimes called "face flowers" (think peonies and roses)
- More delicate, gestural varieties, like ranunculus or anemones (if it looks kinda like it's waving at you, that's a good sign).

Eric Wareheim's New Music Video Is Bizarre And Butt-Centric

He directed the clip for Major Lazer’s “Bubble Butt,” which also features Bruno Mars, Tyga, 2 Chainz, and Mystic. And butts.

This is the new video for "Bubble Butt" by Major Lazer.

The song features Bruno Mars, Tyga, 2 Chainz, and Mystic, and it's pretty bonkers on its own. But when you add seapunk shorties, superpowers, and ass pads galore into the mix, it becomes even more gloriously weird. It's pretty much par for the course for a clip directed by Eric Wareheim, who is half of the comedy duo Tim & Eric.

Source: youtube.com

If this is your first time experiencing an Eric Wareheim video, you should probably get familiar with this one he did for Beach House, too.

It's for "Wishes" and features Ray Wise of Twin Peaks having an athletic freakout, and while it's just as strange as the Major Lazer video, it's also oddly touching.
