Baseball fan, baseball player, @RedSox & @Rockies rooter, ballpark aficionado. @SABRrocky Seen games in 56 MLB parks. Once left Fenway Park in an ambulance. 🚑
I built a simple website to see exactly how much each MLB backstop has changed over the last 10 years.

I just heard from one of his long time friends that Denver Broncos super fan Rocky "The Leprechaun" Brougham passed on Monday this week after a massive stroke last Thursday. I met Rocky once and it was a real thrill. He left a sticker in our old studio that I could never get off the wall. God speed Rocky. Here is a video of Rocky when he was a Denver7 fan of the week: https://t.co/RJDphiN0je
Texted my friend who works in a high level position in a MLB front office to ask him if he had any insight into why Trevor Bauer isn’t getting any traction in the MLB again. This is his verbatim response, copied and pasted with permission:
“No interest in him for yrs. PR nightmare, players don’t want him around, control freak and a diva, wants special treatment. League minimum talk on X is a desperation play for clicks, eyeballs. Every scouting dept monitors NPB, MEX. Velo+spin down, control diminishing. Workout programs took backseat to YouTube career, shows on field. Doesn’t have the stuff to make a 40man, wouldn’t make our LowA roster. Would be shocked if he ever gets even a minor league deal again. Def won’t with us, friends in other offices say same.”
Nature is healing. 🥰🥰🥰
. @Fanatics I ordered an Orioles shirt and was sent a Red Sox shirt. Fine, mistakes happen. I contacted your chat feature (twice) and they sent me a replacement. I received ANOTHER Red Sox shirt. Your chat is useless and no one will help me fix the actual problem. SOMEONE HELP
My dad was nine during the 1967 Impossible Dream season, and when the Red Sox went to the World Series, his dad took him out of school to go to Game 2.
Jim Lonborg pitched a complete-game 1-hitter and Carl Yastrzemski had his first (and only) career multi-homer postseason game.
I fell in love with baseball as a little girl because of the stories my dad told me about that day and Red Sox legends. Hearing about Yaz and the Impossible Dream Sox made me feel close to my grandfather, who died a few years after that game.
Any time Yaz is at Fenway, I think about my dad as a little boy, so full of joy and hope, sitting with his dad and watching the magic. And I think about being at Fenway with my dad, and how grateful I am to share these experiences with him.
What a gift baseball is to the world, that we get to feel part of something bigger than ourselves, and connected to the people we love, long after they’re gone.
Make people come in, park, buy food and/or beverage and then reschedule when nothing but rain was in the forecast all day. That’s pretty low @RedSox . Not the way you treat fans.
Nearly 7500 deliveries across 43 states.
Over 200k screenshots of offers collected, data uploaded for research/analysis and potential litigation.
Over 150k miles driven and over 200 sporting events attended.
As much as I would like to, I cannot justify spending $40 for a 6"x4" piece of the Boise State blue turf (as I've actually *been there* 3x).. if it was 6'x4', would be an absolute yes.... hell, I'd pay $100
