I honestly do not know if I’ll post here beyond the windup links. No secret where I’m at — same place everyone else is defecting to. It’s been a mirror of this feed for a while now anyway. ✌️

When Gabe Kapler goes out to make a pitching change, he knows the pitcher might get mad and invoke a clause requiring a vote, so he brings a second Gabe Kapler with him (to get double votes)

Umpire just told Beltre to get in the on-deck circle. Beltre responded by dragging the on-deck circle to where he was standing. Ejected.

The Texas Rangers — the only MLB team without a Pride Night — have changed their website banner. Here are screenshots from May 29 vs. today. “Run it Back” has given way to “Straight Up Texas” At best, it’s really unfortunate timing. At worst, it feels antagonistic.

I have some thoughts on Pride Nights, as I sit in the press box and see this in right field, and consider that one of these teams is the only one in the league that refuses to have one.

After 45 years, Eric Nadel finally got to call the final out of a World Series. Earlier that day, I sat down with Eric to talk about his life in broadcasting, a “bucket list” call, and his longtime broadcast partner, the late Mark Holtz. theathletic.com/5022504

Shed Long — a 23 y/o major league baseball player, in peak physical condition, wearing a glove, 175 ft from home plate — didn't play this cleanly & was left shaking his hand in pain. But tell me again how grandma in section 119 just needs to "pay closer attention to the game"

Time for a game of “spot the difference,” wherein one team conveniently leaves out one little part of the message.

If owners refuse to pay their minor leaguers, those players should have the option to declare themselves free agents.

Which one of these players is Brady Feigl? Trick question: they are both named Brady Feigl. One is in the Rangers system, and the other is in the A's system.
