Me: Do you think Max Fried pitched game 1 so he could fast on Yom Kippur. My dad: I think he pitched game 1 because he's the Yankees' ace... #ALWC

At Yom Kippur services tomorrow, I'm gonna ask my rabbi if I'm obligated to root for the Phillies in the NLDS, since they have 3 Jewish players on the team... G'mar chatima tova

We may not have accomplished all our goals in Rotterdam, but at least we went out on a high note. And 7th place in Europe is nothing to sneeze at! Looking forward to Miami in March and plenty more exciting stuff in between. Thanks for following along. !לשנה הבאה במיאמי

L'shana Tova U'metukah שנה תובה ומתוקה Wishing everyone a happy and sweet new year.

I did some #EuroBaseball2025 mathing: - Win by a 11+ runs: get a bye till Thursday, straight to Quarterfinals. - Win by less than 11: A moral victory. 3rd in Group B. We play the group C runner up on Wednesday to get to Quarterfinals. - Lose to NED: Still 3rd place in Group B, play-in on Wednesday.

👀👀👀👀 France and Great Britain tied 4-4 in the bottom of the 8th. This is the last Round Robin game for each of them, and has possible implications for our seeding moving forward.

"Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Welp. We've had a bit of each in the first two days of #EuroBaseball2025. Congrats to @gbbaseball.bsky.social. We'll take on the Netherlands tomorrow: 19:30 CEST | 20:30 IST | 1:30 PM EDT
