BIG TEN CHAMPIONS ‼️ No. 2 Indiana defeats No. 1 Ohio State 13-10 to claim the conference title.

I had the true honor of speaking at the Dodd Center for Human Rights. Thanks to UConn and Prof. James Waller for having me. It's today's episode of PTFO: youtu.be/qrK1x176678?...

Incredibly impressive for what had to have been a grueling night

Can’t wait to watch Game 5 tonight! Lol

Wrote about the temptation to put Gaza on the back burner now that the ceasefire is solidifying—and why we can't let that happen. Gaza still needs you, and me, and everyone to fight until real Palestinian liberation is won. www.discourseblog.com/p/gaza-still...

REALLY enjoyed this book (and enjoyed that Bookshop got it to me before the release date so that I could read most of it as the season started, which was the goal)

In addition to this plan being horrifying, obviously illegal, and impeachment-worthy, it’s absolutely pathetic how these bootlickers fantasize that a certifiably insane 280-pound tub of rancid mayonnaise who has been tapping at death’s door lately is somehow this buff, steely action hero.

Riley Greene's first career grand slam travels 471 feet! 🤯

*Wall Street Journal reporter: Hi Josh, can I ask you some questions? *Me: I'm not qualified to comment on anything related to Wall Street. *Reporter: It's for a story about the genius of Nancy Faust. *Me: Ooh, hold on while I gather my 1,200 pages of notes on the topic. www.wsj.com/sports/baseb...

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

New from me: As ESPN releases its juiced-up app, I wrote about what Jimmy Pitaro's company has become. www.theringer.com/2025/08/22/m...

That would be mine! Looks amazing. Excited to see it in person!

I’m glad I’m not the only one who gets pissed when Benson Boone graces my radio

Happy Gilmore, 1996 Topps style

Surprise! There's a new episode of My Baseball History out today. We officially announce the release of "Nancy Faust At The Game" and give you some details about how it came together. You can also hear some clips of the songs that appear on the album. Check it out now. @played41.bsky.social

It’s not too often that my two favorite things - music & baseball - intersect. But when they do, good things like this happen!

This is insane. I figured he pitched in my local area (Midwest) but now I’ve gotta go see the field! (I drive by the park he pitched in a couple times a week unknowingly)

Great stuff. Here’s how I spend many of my weekends. You gain a new appreciation for baseball when you have to remember the quirky rules of 1858 or 1864 or 1886 … while you’re running from first to third.

You've been such a supportive listener over the years, Devin. It's people like you who make me keep doing it. I'm honored that you want to rep the show by wearing one of these shirts. ⚾️

HUGE shoutout to @shoelesspodcast.bsky.social for the awesome shirt! If you like baseball history, you should 100% listen to his podcast. Dan does a great job moderating so that every facet of baseball can be represented through the guests. If you haven’t listened, you should start here!

Thank you to @mightylark.bsky.social for the Rickey card courtesy of @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social Sunday Giveaway and also for the Seaver stamp print! This is my first print since joining his Patreon. He does great work and you should join too if you like baseball art!

Shoutout to @jaywigley.bsky.social for the last 2 weeks for my first Gummy Arts cards, the Riley and Harper cards, and the very nice note! Courtesy of @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social Sunday Giveaway

Thank you to @kujhawk90.bsky.social for the sweet card that will be added to my Rickey display (when I figure out how to display my Rickey cards)! Courtesy of @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social Sunday Giveaway

🤣

They say don’t meet your (childhood) heroes but after 20 years of being a fan I got to meet Brandon Inge last night and he is a very cool dude!

The new issue of Clearing The Bases, our email newsletter, was sent out earlier today. We discuss the SABR convention, going to ball games on a road trip, and where you can buy the new @graigkreindler.bsky.social giclée. You can read it here, for free: shoelesspodcast.substack.com/p/clearing-t...

He did it!! (Fun fact about me is that in my first varsity at bat in high school back in 2014, he struck me out on a fouled-off bunt attempt 😂)

McKinstry absolutely deserved to be Bregman’s ASG replacement

#OTD in baseball history

Played in my first vintage baseball game this weekend as a fill-in for a team that was short on players and will definitely be playing in one again the next time I get the chance!

We're able to evaluate how well teams position their players. So today we spotlighted the team that positions its outfielders best ... and we explained the methods by which we did that. www.sportsinfosolutions.com/2025/06/24/s...

Also, sports are political! ICE was at Dodger stadium last week! Baseball fans' reward for surviving the next few years is almost certainly going to be a work stoppage. Trump intervened on behalf of the ghost of Pete Rose a couple months ago.

Bruce Springsteen said an album “is a record of who you are and where you were at that moment in your life.” With “Tracks II: The Lost Albums” he adds seven full ones to his catalog. Read our wide-ranging interview with Springsteen ahead of the release. nyti.ms/4kWYb4b

Riley Greene's bases-clearing double stretches Tigers lead to 7-2 with his 200th career RBI. He's the first Tiger to drive in 200 runs before his 25th birthday since Travis Fryman in 1992.

The fact that none of them realized that part of being the secret police means you get shanked by the same underhanded methods you used is a further example of why the STEM fields need instruction in the humanities and ethics

The baseballs in play this past weekend had some of the highest drag coefficients in the ten years that's been measured. Whether intentional or accidental, this is as extreme a baseball as has been put in play. baseballsavant.mlb.com/drag-dashboard

Another big shoutout to @if7ate9.bsky.social for the 3 giveaway cards and also the huge headstart on my 1990 DK set!

My brother’s annual AFSP fundraiser is wrapping up on Saturday night, and if you’d like to make a contribution, please do! The link also very informative on suicide, so even if you’re unable to donate, it is worth the read! He hit his running goal while I…did not. Next year…

Huge shoutout to The Diamond King movie folks & @nlbmuseumkc.bsky.social for the jumbo card giveaway win! These are beautiful! If you haven’t yet, you should check out The Diamond King on Prime Video!

Major League Baseball is purchasing an equity stake in Athletes Unlimited Softball, sources told Jeff Passan. The investment helps establish the AUSL as a viable long-term entity in a sport that has seen multiple professional leagues fold.

Big thanks to @if7ate9.bsky.social for the cards from @ngtcollectibles.bsky.social Sunday Giveaway! And after watching The Diamond Kings doc this week, I decided to collect the 1990 set, starting with this Stewart! (If you have any of these, I know a guy who’d take them off your hands 😁)

Copped this as soon as I saw it
