 * Symbol confirmed.svg The article was expanded more than 5x recently enough and is neutral and well cited. The hook is short enough and also cited within the article. The QPQ was completed. Editors placing this DYK on the main page should know that the image (which is indeed in the article) is a featured picture and was a picture of the day in March 2011. ALT1 has been rejected and references to other meanings of shagging (disambiguation) in the article have been copyedited so that they are baseball specific. Sorry to take some of the humor out of this creative and timely DYK. -   t  u coxn \ talk 19:38, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
