When you're Shohei Ohtani slumps look different. He's hitting 279/347/395 over his past 49 PAs (107 wRC+). Just one home run and two doubles.

There is no baseball today. MLB does that so people can think long and hard about whether they should follow this damn sport. They are already trying to help you with blackouts and failed streaming services.

Make good choices, people.

This baseball game has been two baseball games: A battle of two excellent starters for six innings in which basically nothing happened, followed by MAYHEM. #phillies

The Phillies won a game where they struck out 19+ times for the first time ever

So #MLB waited until this morning to announce cable TV deals for the #MNTwins, Guardians, Padres, Rockies and Diamondbacks. And now the app is down. Banner day for the league.

My sister is bringing my parents for our annual Opening Day party tomorrow night. I am a baseball fan because of my mom, who tuned in the Cardinals on KMOX 40+ years ago as we drove an hour home from the night classes she was taking to get her degree. We fell, hard, for the company baseball offers.

we would be very curious to hear thoughts around design rather than functionality we’re thinking about ways to improve the look and feel of the site more than just expand the functionality of the site.
I’d love to chat with you all a bit about visual design at Sports Reference. For about three years, we’ve been internally discussing a “design refresh” but it has always sat on the back burner. With my role change, I’m thinking more about it these days and would love some specific feedback.

Hypothetically speaking, if we figure out what a listed ‘Unknown Stadium’ is, where do you want the info sent?

Feeling hopeful I can figure out some of this, at least locally.

That should've been Lattimore's 4th P.I. penalty. Blatantly held A.J. Brown in the end zone.

A.J. Brown wide open, possibly for a big catch and run, Kenny Pickett throws way behind him, incomplete. 2 plays later the Eagles call a run on 3rd and 7.

The SABR Games Project posted a dozen new articles Friday celebrating the Athletics’ history in Oakland.

One of them, incidentally, recalls the late Rickey Henderson’s major-league debut. sabr.org/gamesproj/ga...

I’ll be sharing some older pieces this week for anyone new to me/my work who wants a feel for what I bring to the table. First up: why front office workers might be the next group to unionize within baseball: www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/why...
Why baseball's next unionization effort could come from MLB front offices: 'We're not protected at all'
There is an emerging appetite for unionization at a time when a labor movement is growing in the sport

The Year is 2050. After building a submarine, I log in to my $5999 blackout-free MLBTV subscription to watch the Bakersfield A’s (it’s temporary) on Polymarket Sports West. My Apple Vision Pro X vibrates. ERROR! WAGER NOT PLACED. I bet 3 ManfredCoin on the A’s starter reaching the 2nd inning (+150).

Hey Everyone,

I know I’ve been pretty aggressive about promoting our subscriptions and our value proposition of late. But I just talked with our (lovely) ownership, and the fact of the matter is we've seen our subscriber base shrink the last two years.
