Shoulda gotten more but making Snell throw almost 30 pitches is pretty nice too.

I love that Rowdy is there. Gotta have our Big Boi contingent, and he can hit tanks. I feel good.

Driving an hour each way to help coach a little league baseball game and see your kid catch 4 solid innings, go 2-3 with a triple and two runs scored, and lead the team to its first win …

You don’t realize how small your car’s trunk is until you have a teenager who plays catcher, with all the required gear and whatnot.

My favorite thing about October is that my coworkers acknowledge (and put up with) my insane Braves fandom, and have been congratulating me all day like I played in that game last night.

Re-upping since it's October, and while I will entertain those who think October is the best month, it is firmly #2 in my book. November is by far the best.

Hindsight is 20/20 and Lee should not have been pitching in that situation yesterday but for those who were clamoring for Iggy in the 8th (ahem, the normally spot-on Chris Dimino), might I offer: Harper v Iggy: 7-13 with 4 HR

My office is right across the street from Truist Park, and I cannot go to the game. And yet biggest decision I had/will have to make today is which jersey to wear to work? I chose the old City Connect - The A - bc they drubbed the Phillies when I wore it to a game earlier this season. We'll see. 🙏

I have heard it, prob as bumper music in college football, in Trader Joe's, or in a Peloton workout, and I do listen to country, but every time my thought process is, "is this that Texas song?" Is it that culture is fragmented (yes), or that the song is "generic country" at best (also yes)?

Been mulling this for a couple days, trying to find the best words to describe my loathing of this concept. I went to Grand Teton last year. Unless you’re planning to put the ballpark in an elk sanctuary - which I wouldn’t put past MLB or the administration - where’s it gonna go?

Such an event would likely require at least temporary construction of a baseball field inside federally protected land.

I’m enjoying the Phillies collapse as much as anyone, of course, but I am also considering that we might have to play the DBacks. And I am not sure how to feel about that.

Kirby Yates is a good dude. Got to play TopGolf with him a few years ago at Austin Riley’s charity tournament; thanks to Kirby, we won the tourney and he gave me his part of the prize (he was making $7MM or so at the time so he didn’t need a Yeti cooler or bottle of whiskey). Fare the well, sir.

OK Cubs I'll give you this one due to your clinch celebration last night but really need you to pull it together. Go for that homefield and sweet, sweet revenue. Or play in beautiful San Diego. But for the love of all that is holy, DO NOT TANK and end up in Atlanta. I cannot have that.
