Ballpark bucket list COMPLETE.

Ballpark number 30 is Daikin Park in Houston!

What an amazing journey it’s been to see all 30 MLB ballparks and the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown.

A lifetime of memories, one ballpark at a time.

@dotsonc I don’t either. They have a stranglehold on the USMNT and haven’t done anything to promote the league to be better overall.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

It starts now… The US has to get more of their top players in the top leagues in the world. Get them out of the MLS. Get them in the Bundesliga, La Liga, Premier League and Serie A. No excuses. That’s how the program as a whole gets better.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

@dotsonc I agree. That’s a huge problem. MLS playing a totally different calendar than the top leagues is where the embarrassment starts. Most of the players in MLS couldn’t suit up in Bundesliga 2 week in and week out.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Really disappointing half for Tyler Adams and Weston McKennie too. They have been so good to this point and have been outplayed in the middle of the field, killing any momentum going forward for the USA.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Two subs at halftime. Tim Ream and Sergio Dest need to get off the field. They are absolutely killing this squad right now.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

This Belgium side is so much more aggressive than the USA. They are all over the field, making every touch so difficult. No space to take a touch and go forward.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Tim Ream didn’t even leave the ground. You have to find a way to clear that ball. What a gut punch again.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

What a strike to get the US back in the game.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Sergio Dest needs to be the first subbed off. He looks completely nervous and overmatched.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

What a game. Mexico really ran out of answers the final 20 minutes. Just launching balls into the box hoping for a deflection to go their way.

England were great. Declan Rice playing on a yellow for 110 minutes was special especially down to 10 men the final 35 + 10 stoppage.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Jordan Pickford has been unreal in this game. He’s such a great keeper. It’s a shame he doesn’t get to play European football every year to showcase his skills against the best in the world.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

I really hope the energy for soccer in America during the World Cup pours over into the Premier League this fall.

Watch a soccer game on Saturday and Sunday before any college or NFL game even starts, it’s great.

Coffee and Premier League every weekend. It’s awesome.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

This whole World Cup has been awesome. The best part is that the best games are just getting started.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

This match has had a little bit of everything. Just awesome action from end to end. The atmosphere adds to the match, but the play on the field has been amazing.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

How good have the Reds been in low scoring games?

They are just the 11th team since 1898 to win 14 of their first 22 games while scoring 78 total runs or less.

5 of the other 10 - Won their division

3 of the 10 - Won the World Series

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

Why aren't the Reds challenging the outside fastball? That's now two pitches that were at least 3 inches off the plate and no challenge. Spencer Steer hesitated, but Matt McLain just took it and the inning's over.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

MLB The Show just saved their game in the last 5 minutes of their stream. Walking back two mechanics that the community was really upset about takes balls. After doubling down two weeks ago and getting all kinds of backlash they took both things out before launch. That’s huge.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

@Nutzypoo_ttv Zack Britton!

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

@SamuelAdams_12 A 4 round tournament mode where you have to change your lineup after each game. It would make more cards usable and add diversity. As you get deeper into the game make it 5 or 6 round tournament. Good reward for a perfect run. Insane reward for 5 perfect runs.

[Ryan Ritchey @RSquared_13]

@gabbgoudy Padres, Rockies, Cardinals, Brewers are the best ones you have left. In that order.
