• Batter up. The College Baseball Hall of Fame is coming to Overland Park’s Prariefire — and now, we’ve got renderings. Designed by KC’s very own Populous, the historic site is set to feature interactive digital displays honoring its 160 inductees, along with the foundation’s offices. (Kansas City Business Journal)

• Tires, stars, keys. The first class of Michelin Keys — awarded to exceptional hotels across North America — has landed, and it includes Crossroads Hotel. The “beacon of hospitality” is noted for its “industrial-chic style,” numerous bars, and Lazia’s “unctuous burrata.”

• We’re all for a good second-hand find here at KCtoday. In the same spirit of reducing, reusing, and recycling, “Buy Nothing” groups have popped up across Facebook — offering community members a no cost way to get rid of (or grab) anything from food and supplies to decor and clothes. (Flatland)

• A $50,000 prize is helping further children’s literacy, thanks to the work of KC native Roy Scott. The founder of Healthy Hip Hop, a mobile app that aims to improve reading + writing skills through music, was honored by the DC-based Catalyst competition yesterday. (Startland News)

• You may have herd this already: loose goats have been running around the riverfront as of late. These “fugitive” foragers were finally caught by the authorities this week and are now safe with KC Pet Project. Have a mental picture of the scenario? The KC Star has the real thing.
