Following a conversation the other night with @ckamka.bsky.social, I was inspired to add a whole bunch of sweet oddball Cubs.
These really help to round out my collection.

All 3 Mariners that homered tonight have a first name that starts with “J”
Julio Rodríguez, Jorge Polanco & Josh Naylor.
🔱 Against the JAYS.
🔱 J is 10th letter in alphabet; M’s scored 10 runs.
🔱 Julio (and Polo): first Mariners with 3+ run HR in ALCS since JAY Buhner.

It’s difficult to overstate Henry Aaron’s importance to the Braves franchise, City of Atlanta—and frankly—his place in American history.
First up, the “More than Brave” exhibit at the AHS, with nod to @heavyjstudios.bsky.social, whose collection is featured.
