Started a fresh OOTP game. Pitched a no-hitter on Opening Day. Then lost a second no-hitter with two outs in the ninth in Game 2. Unreal.

Once upon a time, both @cyrthogg.bsky.social and @keeganmatheson.bsky.social were ICs writing MLB content at a network I helped manage. Both were too ambitious to learn much from me.

Celebrities, former players, and pro athletes are often seen in the stands at MLB games, but I wonder if any have ever been caught on camera catching a home run or foul ball?

Self-promotion has never been my strong suit but I wanted to share another mention that I've been writing again. Quite a lot more than I expected so far. Oh and the newsletter is free.

All respect intended for Hoynes and Miller here, but how does this NOT go to Verducci?
Congratulations to the 3 nominees for the BBWAA Career Excellence Award:
Tom Verducci
Paul Hoynes
And the late, great Scott Miller
All so deserving of being honored in the writers' wing of the Hall of Fame

Is that Ryan Howard doing interviews after these guys hit? He looks like he's in better shape than during his playing days. Must be all that Subway.

The third game of Manny Ramirez's career.
"3B Jim Thome" is always a hoot to think about in retrospect (but this lineup that Abbott no-hit in '93 was *loaded*)

Saw the @thesavbananas.bsky.social today at Fenway. And some fun guests:
Doug Flutie threw out the first (three) pitch(es).
Bill “Spaceman” Lee struck out a batter. 👀!!!
Johnny Damon lined out.
Jackie Bradley Jr. was hit by a pitch and lined out.

Method Man was being chased through the Providence Place Mall by some fans so he ducked into the store I was running to hide for a few minutes until they passed by. Nice guy.
