I made this an inning ago, so now you have to see it too.

The government may reopen before this game is over.

Tomorrow's World Series Game 4 starting pitcher has been on base 8 times tonight.

I **almost** want to write a joke about Snell leaving earlier in a World Series game.

Ahead of whatever happens this ninth inning, I just want to say Dominic Gene Canzone is one of my favorite names in baseball.

"Esteban, do you ever miss working for a team?" Yes. In October. There's no place like the ballpark come playoff time.

This has to be the best individual game in postseason baseball history, yes? I can't imagine anyone has done more than this ever.

The most unbelievable part of that play (and there are many) is that the umpires got it right in real time; the review didn't change anything.

Hi all. Saberseminar is looking for pro bono legal help to assist with a trademark issue. Please email or reply if you think you might be able to help or refer us to someone that could.

Random baseball thought of the day: In 2014, and after finally pushing their chips for the playoffs, the Oakland Athletics let Jon Lester face the Royals top of the lineup for a 4th time on 95 pitches with a 7-3 lead and in the 8th inning of the win-or-go-home Wild Card Game, with no one warming up.

35+ HR, 20+ SB & 110+ walks in a season, MLB history: 2025 Juan Soto 2018 Mike Trout 1999, ‘97 Jeff Bagwell 1999 Chipper Jones 1996-98, ‘93 Barry Bonds 1970 Carl Yastrzemski

Pawel is an awesome co-worker, I can't recommend him enough.

Sorry that I'm a day late to this, but can we talk about this Schwarbomb? Dude hit it 435 to left-center on a really good 0-2 fastball with basically no leg kick and a really flat bat path. That shouldn't really be possible. His hands are SO QUICK and in sync right now.

Our first draft Saberseminar schedule is out here, with neat talks from: - @pobguy.bsky.social on torpedo bats - Josh Kalk from the Twins - the Chiba Lotte Marines on NPB sabermetrics - @srbrown70.bsky.social on batter swing decisions and many more! www.saberseminar.com/schedule/

We have our first NPB team sponsoring Saberseminar this year--the Chiba Lotte Marines. They'll also be giving a talk about NPB and how the league is different from MLB. Really excited for this one! Reminder that ticket sales and sponsorships are still available here: www.saberseminar.com

Excited to share that 'Swinging, Fast and Slow' is now available on arXiv! arxiv.org/abs/2507.01238 I had a blast collaborating with @saberpowers.bsky.social on this and learned a lot from him in the process (plus I finally wrote a baseball paper!) #MLB #Statcast #sabermetrics

Folks this account puts all the HR vids here. And the feeds tab means you can follow just individual teams. What a dang great service

Is basically all of Google down? 🤔

Some more angles of that Denzel Clarke catch from the NBC Sports California broadcast:

Looks like Scott blew it.

Daulton Varsho is back. #BlueJays

On being called DEI and why it isn’t the burn they think it is

Whoever produces the three-episode Chas McCormick documentary can count on my viewing time

Jackson Holliday robbed on this absolutely incredible play by Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz:

Submitted an abstract for Saber Seminar! If you have an idea and could present it in Chicago this summer, here's the form for submission: forms.gle/687GBSbyw5tB... Saber Seminar is an excellent place to have your work seen by front offices.

Declan Rice, take a bow! This second hit may be even more unbelievable than the first. Unstoppable.

I title this one The Pain of Being an Early Millennium Padres Fan.

This is pretty good! Freddy Peralta is 3rd at 4.20. Jake Odorizzi is 4th at 4.19. Dylan Cease is 6th at 4.17. Drew Pomeranz (9th) and Edward Cabrera (1th) are close. Two more to go!

I went to check something on this, so now we get some Friday trivia! Find the top 6 pitchers (because yes, Snell is number one) by pitches per batter faced for their career, using MLB data starting in 2015. Minimum 50 career starts.

Only took MLB TV two innings into the first game to crash completely

Happy Opening Day! ⚾️ It's hard to believe, but this is my sixth (!) season getting paid to think about baseball. I'm a really lucky guy, and days like this always put things in perspective. 2020 Esteban was still rocking a full unibrow.

For the first time in at least 20 years, there is only one non white man in charge of baseball ops for a team this season. The second issue of The Bandwagon with @zcrizer.bsky.social out now open.substack.com/pub/bandwago...

Excited to announce Saberseminar 2025 will be *August 23-24* in Chicago. We will be opening ticket sales soon and then start accepting abstracts for presentations, before beginning to announce speakers and panels. Save the date, we look forward to seeing you there! www.saberseminar.com

Google keeps building unnecessary AI instead of dark mode in their products, and I can't tell you how much my eyes hate them around (college) Opening Day. I really don't need you to summarize this sheet, Gemini, just be darker, please!!!
