Boston Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale becomes fastest pitcher to record 2,000 career strikeouts, accomplishing the feat in just 1,626 innings.

It's National Left-Hander's Day, a celebration founded by the Left-Handers Club to honor leftie style.

Did you know only about 12% of the population is left handed? While it may sound like a small number we are celebrating in a big way because August 13 marks the official date of International Left Handers Day!

Lefties are often looked upon with suspicion, with one four year old boy from Oklahoma sent home with a letter saying that left-handed people are "unlucky."

August 13 is International Lefthanders Day. Just 10% of people in the world are left-handed, though many of them occupy high offices. Scroll down to see 11 left-handed world leaders — from Benjamin Netanyahu to Barack Obama to Simon Bolivar, the military gene…

I am frustrated with the Cubs right now. Matt Mervis could be starting at first base with Hosmer and Mancini platooning as the DH, and Mancini taking the occasional start at 1st against tough left handers. Also, Morel could be giving a day off to each of 6 different position

Left Handers Day is Sunday, August 13! The Atlantic City Left-Handed Social Club will have our one and only yearly meeting on this date, do attend!

Shaheen aafridi with out support from pitch, is pathetic ...he needs some rest.same goes for Shadab Khan, his bowling performance is declining day by day. Babar's poor captaincy cost us the match,he should have given couple of overs to iftikhar as there were two left handers.

A whole day of silence? Yet bullying for real issues in schools K-12 is about hair color, body color, crooked teeth, speech patterns, left handers, height, social status, hobbies etc. But nah let's focus on sexuality that shouldn't be present until teens or older. https://t.co/gwT4cbKHC4

Why teams getting lured into LBW reviews bowling over the wicket to left handers reverse sweeping. CSK reviewed a similar one the other day. Both balls pitching comfortably outside leg .

It wasn't just a lucky good day for Mickelson, it should of been expected. Augusta National, the home of the Masters is a Left handers course. Scott Weir, Bubba Watson (2) and Phil Mickelson (3) have 6 Green Jackets amongst them since 2003. The ratio is ridiculous.

Define handedness? In grandpa's day there were no left-handers. How can you self-ID with no physical criteria? Lefties are faking it to get an advantage in sports. Biology says there are only 2 types of handedness: left or right. Schools have a woke ambidextrous agenda. ENOUGH!
