FYI — A note from my alter-ego…

Great day today at Hopkins Bloomberg for the SOE/IEEE Learning Engineering Symposium.

Kinda liking the coaching changes in Baltimore.

I am

Standing in line to get pizza. Guy in camo cap complaining that the Blue Jays shouldn’t be playing for the pennant because they “Aren’t even an American team. They are third-world”. Now, I’m all for dunking on the Blue Jays. But that’s just not how you do it, sir. Idiot.

Road trip. Headed to Chicago. What do I need to do in Chicago? In my 51 years, I’ve only been there once — in and out for a gig.

Let the ball hit you.

So, I’m going to do this Listening Party thing tonight on Bandcamp.

I’d like to think that I played some small role in making this happen.

Would somebody please beat the goddamn Yankees.

Hey. So maybe my alter-ego wrote an ode to Earl Weaver.

Okay, let’s get these playoffs over with so we can get to the Hot Stove.

Hey, so my alter-ego is releasing a new album in November. Go listen to the preview while it is streaming over the next couple days.

Last day of the regular season and everything has gone exactly as predicted.

Overheard in the studio.

Yankees Suck.

Guy next to me at the game has been explaining movies to his girlfriend for the last four innings. May I punch him?

Play ball!

Whew.

For the remainder of the season: All we do is walkoffs.

This place just went nuts.

That’s how you break up a no-no.

2131 30

Walk Off!

Just accidentally discovered that salami and black licorice taste amazing together.

10:15pm ET start time for tonight’s game is rough.

That was a noble at-bat, Coby.

Extend Beavers. 32 ABs, .344 AVG, 1.038 OPS.

Nice to see Bradish back tonight.

Pretty sure the money I spent on chicken tenders and a pretzel last night at Camden Yards just paid for Basallo’s extension.

BEAVERS!!!

Play ball!

Basallo turned 21 last Wednesday. There have been 28 players aged 20 or younger with more than 250 PA in a Triple-A season since 2006. Basallo leads that group in SLG, OPS, wRC+, ISO and HR (23). Also in that group: Jackson Holliday (2024), Freddie Freeman (2010), Adam Jones (2006).

Happy Samuel Basallo Day.

It’s time. #Orioles

Holding my breath.

Two part post, for all my #Orioles friends…

Almost fainted when I saw the price of cherries today at the grocery store.

The trade deadline really brings out the best in people.

I like all the moves. More! #Orioles

Social media sometimes makes me wish we could trade some of the Orioles’ fans for the fans of other clubs.

Corbin Martin on #Orioles: "This is where I want to be. This clubhouse is freaking awesome. They open their arms to anyone that comes in. They don’t make you feel like you’re a nobody. Everyone’s a somebody here."

Welcome back, Adley.

Will Schaff posted a song that either he or Dave Andler recorded for me on a four track recorder somewhere near 30 years ago. youtu.be/Pb-DjpPeLvM

Ok. It’s time to invest in a Trevor Rogers jersey.

People look to me and say / "Is the end near, when is the final day?" / What's the future of mankind / How do I know, I got left behind RIP Ozzy youtu.be/mSfNvTVEALw

Feels like this Tampa series has been going on for three months. #Orioles

Can we just get back to playing baseball, already?

From now on, I am going to settle all arguments and stalemates through a home run swing off.
