@tylermaun.com @samdykstramilb.bsky.social heard you talking about game-winning RBI on the P12 qualifier broadcast, absolutely agree we should start tracking that stat again (it was actually an official stat for 9 years in MLB, and has survived longer in Asia, if you believe Japanese Wikipedia)

the phillies' 2026 playoff run will not last exactly four games, which was what happened in 2025 and 2024 this is cause for celebration

glass completely full {delusional}: if every result goes the Phillies' way (they win their last two, Cubs lose their finale, Diamondbacks sweep the Padres), they can still get the 4 seed glass completely empty [realistic]: nothing will go right and the Phillies will miss the playoffs by a full game

and now the Cubs are down if only the Phillies could score, they'd have a chance to move 0.5 games ahead of Chicago :(

The Hunters made them work for it, but the Firebells swept their way to the championship series last night, as expected, with homers from Skylar Kaplan, Alexia Jorge, and Kelsie Whitmore. My recap includes injury updates, manager insight, and the Hunters' thoughts heading into their offseason #WPBL:

San Francisco progresses to the #WPBL championship with a 2-0 semis sweep of Boston. The series was close in the end, a testament to the tenacity of the Hunters; but the results never felt particularly in doubt, a testament to the Firebells' dominance. Read more at the link below!

One more for the road: the #WPBL playoff preview series concludes with a look at the dangerous New York Heights, led by slugger Denae Benites and fireballer Jaida Lee, and supported by a deep roster that is peaking at the right time. Will their upward momentum continue? Los Angeles awaits tonight.

Welcome to the #WPBL playoffs. While the Hunters and Firebells do battle tonight, previews roll on with the 3-seed Los Angeles Queens. Led by a Cy Young-caliber closer and a threatening lineup, the Queens could hang with any team, but this squad has glaring weaknesses too. tmr: New York last up!

Day 2 of #WPBL playoff previews! The San Francisco Firebells have been on fire throughout the regular season, and they come into the postseason with the best pitching, the best hitting, and the best two-way player in the league, as Kelsie Whitmore has lived up to the hype. Next: the LA Queens.

It's time for the #WPBL playoffs -- preview number one goes to a Boston team that hasn't been number one on the field, but might be number one in our hearts. Their pitching has been shaky, their bats have been hot-and-cold, but don't count them completely out yet. Preview #2 tomorrow: Firebells.

News from Instagram: Outfielder Thaima Maximiliana has left the Queens to join the Team Netherlands Women's Softball World Cup team. That tournament runs through Sept 16, and rosters have set weekly so far in #WPBL, so it seems likely she's out for the season. Played in 12/13 games so far.

nitter.net is down. xcancel.com may go soon, too. all the respect to the folks at nitter for their services so far, but to be honest, X completely locking itself out of the web is probably a net positive for us all in the long term
Cease and desist
On 24 August 2026 cease and desist letters have been sent by X Corp. demanding a permanent takedown of Nitter instances and the project's repository.

nitter.net is offline and development has stopped for the time being. I'm seeking legal advice and won't be commenting further on the specifics for now.

Thank you to everyone who used, hosted, packaged, donated and contributed to Nitter over the past seven years.

@cliffcorcoran.bsky.social with the kind of scorekeeping discourse we love to see #wpbl
(Note: Hastings’ single was officially ruled a fielder’s choice, but that has to be overturned, as no out was recorded on the play, and no misplay was made by a fielder. Queens shortstop Samaria Benítez threw to second on Hastings’s bouncer to her right because she had no chance to catch the speedy Hastings at first base and, it turned out, no chance to get either of the other runners, either. That’s not a fielder’s choice. That’s a single.)

We've got a HR race in the WPBL! After Kelsie Whitmore tied Denae Benites with her 7th HR, Benites returned serve and smashed her 8th. I spoke to the breakout star about her newfound power, her refusal to quit baseball, and what it feels like to finally belong. www.mlb.com/news/denae-b...

I can't find any beat coverage of the WPBL games (beyond the league's own insufficient write-ups), so I've decided to take matters into my own hands (for now) with an old-school fan blog. Here's the first post on Kelsie Whitmore's 3HR game (don't look at the rest of the site, it's not ready):
