There is nothing like a great game with great company. A fun night with Mark Armour at the big A. Also, this Ohtani guy is pretty good!
On the Fox broadcast yesterday, Adam Wainwright opined that the games were going too fast for the fans to enjoy their food, etc., and suggested adding 5 sec to the pitch count clock. Figuring 250 pitches for an avg gm, that adds 21 min. Welcome back 3 hr games!
White Sox involved in a crucial series with the Kansas City Royals, each team hoping to avoid relegation. Sorry, wrong sport, but it would definitely liven things up.
Well this is an interesting read. I have a lot of thoughts, but there's one thing I want to push back especially on... (Also thank you to @stephenjnesbitt for such a deeply reported piece.) theathletic.com/4503613/2023/0…
The White Sox broadcasters have been playing highlights from Sunday's 9th inning comeback vs. TB like the Sox were the 1951 Giants, and Andrew Vaughn was Bobby Thomson. Now that they finally lost another game (they're 10-22), can we stop this, please?
Things are starting to turn around for the White Sox: Southpaw just won the latest Great Mascot Race on video during the 7th inning stretch of the StL-SF broadcast. I could feel the excitement in Bob Costas' voice.
Hoping that maybe the Bears could draft the "best available baseball player" and lend him to the White Sox....
Great news! My abstract "8 Strong Men: The Chicago Cubs' First Move Toward Integration (1949)" has been accepted as an ORAL presentation at SABR 51 in Chicago. This story will be a chapter in my forthcoming book about the Black players who integrated the Cubs and White Sox.
It's not fair to expect the White Sox to compete with big-market, high-spending teams like the Tampa Bay Rays. When do we play Oakland?
The A's-Giants Bay Area dynamic always struck me as being like WSox-Cubs in Chi... an obviously smaller fan base, but a very passionate one, and a franchise that can succeed w/ proper management. As for bending over to a billionaire to keep them, I would say, "Take a hike, son."
Hobie Landrith, the First New York Met, Dies at 93 nytimes.com/2023/04/09/spo… Last year when I was doing research on Sam Jones, I had a wonderful phone conversation with Hobie, who was Sam's personal catcher with 3 teams. A sweety guy. RIP.
With former Cub (and talented trumpeter) Carmen Fanzone and his wife, jazz singer Sue Raney, at Saturday's SABR LA regional in Placentia. Sue even did an acapella version of "Van Lingle Mungo"! @sabr
I worked with Tim on FOX broadcasts for nearly 15 years. He was smart, passionate, fun, great to talk to & interact with. And he was the best BB TV analyst ever. For years I've kept a voicemail on my phone from him, just because it was from Tim. Like so many, I will miss him.
I have just registered for this summer's SABR convention in my old home town... my 35th SABR National. Hope to see many of you there!
Congratulations to my friends Steve Gietschier and Mark Rucker, as well as to Robert Whiting, on winning SABR's prestigious Henry Chadwick Award. Well done! @sabr
Kudos to my buddies Mark and Dan on winning the Seymour Medal (do they get half a medal each?) for their terrific book.
Here's hoping that when I die, I won't be said to have had "a complicated legacy." Bobby Hull’s Golden Hockey Career Diminished by His Troubling Dark Side nytimes.com/2023/01/30/spo…
RIP Lin Brehmer, beloved Chicago rock-jock for WXRT... and baseball fan.
Only in LA moment: outside the gym where I work out (a block from where I live), they were setting production this morning for a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" segment. Did not see Larry/Jeff/Ted etc., nor was I asked to be an extra. Bummer.

@SABRbbcards This is one of my favorite Topps certified auto cards -- it's so meta -- it's almost an artist signing his work, given that he designed the 1952 Topps cards.
I am completely gassed and completely energized as is the annual tradition. Thanks to all who made it another great convention.
Hope you all had as much fun at #SABR51 as we did! Thanks to our hosts at @SABRChicago & @PalmerHouse, support from @MLB, @baseball_ref & @Populous, and everyone who made the 2023 Chicago convention so memorable!
After several days of fascinating @sabr baseball discussions, I probably can use a nap. Instead I’m fitting another game in today.
My favorite week of the year is @sabr convention—an extra-special week when in Chicago. Lucky to share my new book w/ @DJFletchMD, new friends (@andybisanartist) & new memories with so many favorite people: @pulhitzherprize, @shoelesspodcast & everyone else. Back soon! #SABR51
