Today was a two-stadium kind of a day.

Check out the masterful Larry Doby artwork painted by the extraordinary @graigkreindler.bsky.social and delivered today to the Muth Museum of Hinchliffe Stadium!

A large painting of Larry Doby in a batting stance with a green stadium backdrop. Standing behind the painting and resting one lower arm each across the top of the painting are a woman with blonde curly hair and a man with spiky hair and glasses.

Performing sporadically throughout the set was Javier Colon, who won the first season of The Voice. His rendition of “Hallelujah” gave me goosebumps.

What a Saturday night in Asbury Park, New Jersey! Bernie Williams and his Band of Friends graced the stage at The Stone Pony. Attendees were treated to some of Williams’ original compositions, and his arrangements of some classics, including “Can’t Buy Me Love” and “Take Me Out to the Ballgame.”

Not a card, but one of my mixed-media creations commissioned by an Ozzie fan. It does feature a hand-cut card, though (as well as my photography).

My photo of the Ozzie Smith statue at Busch Stadium (The Wizard with gloved hand outstretched, set against a blue sky) combined with a portrait of Smith hand-cut from an Allen & Ginter baseball card. Small, circular designs surround the portrait, representing Ozzie’s signature backflip.

It was nice seeing a Langs Star shining brightly in the press box at Yankee Stadium when I was there this past Monday. @slangsonsports.bsky.social

A portion of the press box at Yankee Stadium. Three rows of reporters are in view, along with monitors hanging from the ceiling. An illuminated star sits next to the last reporter in the first row. The star is a Langs Star, a fundraising vehicle used to pay tribute to Sarah Langs and to bring attention to ALS.

My favorite part of the exhibit is Larry Doby’s senior yearbook: the Eastside HS Mirror from 1942. The commentary next to Doby’s photo is wild given the historic path his career took! “‘Larry’ can make himself at home anywhere, providing he's on a basketball court or a football field.”

Larry Doby’s high school yearbook opened to the pages featuring the school’s basketball and football teams. Doby was on both teams.
