Can you (or someone you know) talk about the Diamondback, Nationals, Angels, or Padres, and would you like to do that on a podcast? If so, slide into my DMs to schedule a time for you to be on Visiting Dugout. Thanks!

It's been said a lot but I really hate the fact that any time I see a photo that looks even halfway cool I have question whether or not it's fake, thereby removing all joy and wonder from basically everything.

Hi @ckamka.bsky.social 😂🙃

Jo Adell is donating his glove from Saturday’s Angels victory to the Hall of Fame.

At my last two tech company jobs, the team I worked on got laid off a few months after I left. So if I leave your company, it’s time to update your resume. (joking) But I’m honestly so glad I’m no longer in that environment.

For this week’s Las Vegas Aviators notebook, I wrote about someone #Athletics fans are gonna love rooting for: Kade Morris www.reviewjournal.com/sports/aviat...

He always looks like someone told him they just replaced his coffee with Folgers crystals

hey, I hear you all, but ballpark food is ALLOWED to be fun. There are still hot dogs and pretzels for traditionalists. Let a bitch have a smothered waffle fry or a crazy milkshake. This is some families' only excuse for a night out.

An honor to have my blog shared by new friend in ball, @nsmckinnon.bsky.social , and an even bigger honor to have it shared alongside the work of longtime mutual from the badplace, @tangibleuno.bsky.social . <3

Bert Blyleven turns 75 today! Here’s a look at the ballcaps he wore across his 22-year MLB career. The Hall of Famer's full career logo history is here: www.sportslogos.net/players/list...

Twitter is a literal paywall itself now. I went back on to post more about my work and it’s pure silence unless you pay for it (which I won’t). I’ve never tweeted or followed anyone political but I get MAGA notifications. I don’t think people even get notifications when I follow them.

One of the coolest baseball pics

never forget when the Easter Bunny sent Teddy Roosevelt to the shadow realm

In the 8th game of the season, the #Aviators are looking for their first save. Wander Suero enters the game with an 8-5 lead over the OKC Comets. #Athletics

I honestly enjoyed Cleveland and look forward to going back someday

Back at Las Vegas Ballpark for Aviators/Comets. For those who don’t know me, hi! I’m a writer for the Las Vegas Review-Journal, covering the Aviators and introducing Las Vegas readers to the A’s.

LOLOLOL I got it backwards. Can't believe the fun fact about Fitzgerald is not that a reporter once conducted an entire interview with him thinking it was James Outman. Which is a true thing that happened.

lol

Tampa is the first one that comes to mind

Alleged umpire lol

So much this. Also, the tech bro mafia doesn't really like reading. They don't *appreciate* reading. So just because *they* can't spot the difference between good writing and bad writing, they think most people can't either.

My fellow writers might not want to hear this, but AI is a useful tool for certain aspects of the craft, like for instance when you’re engaged in the process of being a talentless shitbag hack who is too lazy to do any fucking writing.

Covering a high school baseball game. One of the players has the last name Knudson, which just makes my Lebowski-addled brain go: “Who the fuck are the Knudsons?”

It is completely unacceptable that we're not allowed to call this Storm Davis.

When his knuckleball fluttered, hitters shuddered. Phil Niekro was born #OTD in 1939 and only got better with age, earning a record 121 wins after turning 40.

The print headline of today’s Las Vegas Aviators coverage makes me wonder which of my editors is a Swiftie www.reviewjournal.com/post/3731448

I've been posting on the other place (I know, I know, but it's mainly about my work), creating a new account since I deleted mine long ago. It feels like an absolutely useless/speaking into a void experience unless you're paying for it. Which... no. I feel like it was infinitely easier pre-X.

One of the fun stories to follow on this year's #Aviators team: Drew Swift. After missing the 2024 season recovering from Tommy John surgery, he's finding his rhythm in Las Vegas. #Athletics

Canonically, Elissa Slotkin, 49 years old, and Anthony Mackie’s Papa Doc character in 8 Mile (Mackie is 47 years old) attended Cranbrook, a private school in the Detroit suburbs, together.

My story from last night’s Aviators blowout win over Salt Lake. #Athletics www.reviewjournal.com/sports/aviat...

I was up past my bedtime last night. Now I’m overcaffeinated and ready to be wildly mediocre at my CrossFit competition this morning.

#Aviators start the season 1-0 with a 12-1 opening night rout of the Salt Lake Bees. Attendance: 8,350. The 105th all-time sell-out. Kade Morris gets the win, going 5.2 innings and giving up one run. Nice sliding catch by Gelof in LF to end it. #Athletics

It's 10-1 #Aviators in the 5th on opening night. PCL ball is in peak form.

Colby Thomas with a big shot (434 feet) to center field, clearing the bases. 9-1 #Aviators. #Athletics

RBI bingle by Brian Serven scores Matthew Lugo. 3-1 Aviators in the 4th.

Henry Bolte narrowly misses a home run, scoring Brian Serven on a loud triple off the left field wall. 2-0 Aviators in the 2nd.

With a stolen base, then a throwing error on the catcher, Michael Stefanic scores the first Aviators run of the season. 1-0 Aviators in the 2nd.

After a few years of video meetings and translating corporate jargon, I’m so grateful that I get to work from a ballpark again.

The Spruce Goose is ready for #Aviators opening night

Las Vegas Aviators lineup for AAA Opening Night vs. Salt Lake: 1. Bolte DH 2. Gelof LF 3. Harris 3B 4. Meneses 1B 5. Thomas RF 6. Stefanic 2B 7. Perez CF 8. Swift SS 9. Serven C SP: RHP Kade Morris, #Athletics No. 12 prospect per MLB Pipeline

Terrifying headline if you don’t realize they are sports teams.

It *didn’t* age well, but… Eric Gagne. As a fellow bespectacled big dude, he just seemed so cool.

it is Triple-A opening day so I am gonna bring back arguably the best story I've written to date and also one that is still very important, especially now. (🎁) defector.com/the-life-of-...

Carson Benge on The Bird:

Paige wishes everyone a happy Opening Day!

Weird to realize the one area of life where I actually have gotten more conservative as I’ve gotten older is “Opening Day should involve the Cincinnati Reds on regular TV for an afternoon game”

oh more of what we need: guys in Kalshi shirts behind home plate. we're really getting what baseball is all about these days: capitalism and gambling
