The Cardboard Gods book is a gift that keeps giving to me. A couple of recent fun returns on my now 14-year-old tale: 1) this team portrait of guys in the book by @mosley_mark 2) a great conversation on the book with @RonKaplanNJ: ronkaplansbaseballbookshelf.com/2024/03/12/the…
@Josh_Wilker @mosley_mark @RonKaplanNJ Just watched the interview. Talking & hearing about the book never gets old. If you were a kid in the '70s & collected baseball cards, the story resonates so much that it feels like you stole my story & wrote a book. Hope the "new thing" as DFW would say is going well. ⚾️
@Josh_Wilker @mosley_mark @RonKaplanNJ So I had to revisit your Darrel Chaney post. It was so good... especially your wife's line, “I hate people who try to pretend they’re not human.” I can so relate to that statement. Also, your interview with Kaplan shows you are so human.

22 years ago, Jane and I got a surprise phone call asking if we wanted to adopt a newly born boy. Sure, why not? Drove to the hospital on Christmas day to pick him up. Drew, a name chosen on the drive, was pretty great then and even better today, on birthday #22.

I saw Don Larsen pitch his World Series perfect game on TV in 1956, when I was 16 years old. Eight years later, I caught him in 9 games with the Colt .45s
@SABRbbcards Card #1 is always intentional. The odds of 2 and 3 following are probably really slim and I do hope it was intentional on TOPPS’ part. No matter, it was a brilliantly designed set and I’m glad to have all three of those in my collection. They are true works of art.
The 1953 Topps set led off with Black players as cards 1, 2, and 3 on the checklist. Was this a nod to the game's changing demographics, pure coincidence, or something else?
#OTD 52 years ago, Cubs ace Fergie Jenkins (Chatham, Ont.) became the first 🇨🇦 to win the NL Cy Young Award. His 1971 season: - 39 starts (led NL) - 24 wins (led NL) - 30 complete games (led NL) - 325 1/3 IP (led NL) - 263 Ks (2nd in NL) - 10.1 WAR (2nd in NL) - Hit 6 HRs (!)
I'm not really ready for the World Series to be over, but I am definitely ready to stop seeing the same five commercials ten times a night.

Heartbroken today. Dennis D’Agostino, my friend of over 40 years and co-worker for 5 with the Mets, died suddenly. We shared the 1986 Championship. Couldn’t have done it without him. He went on to enjoy a great PR career with the Knicks. He was a Met forever. Love you Dennis.
