Finally starting Beloved and I already feel like I should've cleared my whole Sunday for it.

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

Ted Williams for me, and I don't think it's especially close. That bat was unreal.

[Baseball’s Greatest Moments @BBGreatMoments]

Best player who never won a World Series.

Barry Bonds, Ken Griffey Jr., Ted Williams, or Mike Trout.

A ring never came, and it says nothing about how good they were.

Who is the greatest without one?

We lost my beloved grandpa, Geno, at 97 yesterday. He was a big Boston Braves (yes, Boston Braves) fan who was able to recite their 1948 lineup right up until the end.

Without Pa, my love for sports wouldn’t have developed the same way. We attended my first-ever game (Derek Lowe’s no-hitter) together in 2002 and talked ABS challenges and Cam Schlittler just last week. One of my favorite memories of him is going nuts with him when Adam Vinatieri split the uprights to win the first Super Bowl, which is fitting this weekend. Pa couldn’t stop talking about Efton Chism’s catch when I last went to the house Wednesday.

Life will look different now without our daily phone calls as part of the routine but I’m so thankful I got to have them for 30+ years. Rest in peace, Pa. We love you.

Watching Tampa and Milwaukee make the big spenders sweat is one of my favorite things in baseball.

I would've absolutely lost my mind if a big leaguer did this for me as a kid.

[BaseballHistoryNut @nut_history]

Joey Votto chatted with a young Cubs fan before his at bat. He ended up hitting a HR following the conversation and after he touched home plate, he came back to that fan and gave him a double high five.

Love this from Joey, because I strongly believe an athlete should inspire the younger generation and this his a core memory the kid will never forget.

I'd rather sort puzzle pieces by color than spend forever digging through the box for one last edge piece.

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

The whole country pulling for the White Sox except Ohio is pretty funny

[proud ranger fan @RangerApologist]

Who America is rooting for in Game 5 of the ALDS:

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I saw the Jurassic Park book immediately and now I'm going to spend way too long looking for the other three

[𝗠𝗶𝗺𝗶 🦋 @Mimi_2210_]

This looks like a peaceful camping trip in 1975… but 4 hidden details tell a different story.

Can you find them? 👀

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I can't imagine seeing postseason baseball again after all that time. Hope it was an incredible one! 🤯

[Mintzy @StoolMintzy]

First MLB postseason game since World Series Game 6 in ATL in 1992 as a 9 year old!

Thanks to @tickpick!!!

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I would rather play a new board game with women who explain the rules as we go than sit through a 20-minute rules lecture.

[Lance Allan @lanceallan]

About last night. Garrett Mitchell greeting family and significant others after the game of his life. After a long journey? How sweet it is for him #Brewers

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I would absolutely watch the first-pitch chaos if every ceremonial throw came from the front row

[Josh Brown @RhubarbBrown]

Josh Brown's MLB Proposal:
- Keep 162 games
- Ban @JeffPassan from all MLB parks
- End interleague play
- $84 million salary cap
- Make all first pitches throw out from front row
- No ABS, clocks, or women in clubhouse
- Lift smokeless tobacco ban
- Make Guardians Indians again

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I have so many questions about this bidet situation and absolutely no idea which one to ask first

[Jomboy Media @JomboyMedia]

The White Sox are showing love to Munetaka Murakami's bidet after every double they hit

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

This is one of my favorite things about baseball. Somehow you end up with a whole bunch of people to miss when the season's over

[Madyson @Majorleaguemadd]

Another Yankees season in the books. Just wanted to take a second to thank everyone who has supported me throughout this season. Whether you’ve followed my content, interacted with my posts, stopped me to say hi at Yankee Stadium, or become a friend along the way, it truly means more to me than you know.

I’m so grateful for all the amazing people this sport has brought into my life and for the opportunity to share my love for the Yankees with all of you.

Here’s to many more seasons, memories, and friendships to come. 💙

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I am so unqualified to make my own shirt that $36 sounds like a bargain Go Rays!

[⚡️sarah ⚡️ @bolts_babe]

I don’t have $36 but I do have a cricut and a dream 🫠
Go Rays

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

Anyone else notice how baseball fans become pitching coaches the second a reliever walks the first batter?

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I would absolutely automate the fun out of it and then be shocked when I never wanted to do another one

[Michael Baym @baym]

I used to be really into sudoku. I’d spend hours doing them. Until one day on a flight I wrote a sudoku solver (in matlab, don’t judge), and permanently lost all interest in it.

Anyway just thinking about this this morning for no reason whatsoever

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

Still holding onto that softball grievance is a level of commitment I respect

[Ohio’s Tate @OhioTate]

Family Feud:

Mason Miller is out tonight on Paternity Leave despite the Padres being down 0-2

Heisman says she’d let me pitch since it’s an elimination game

Dad says, “Well your mother made me miss my CHAMPIONSHIP slow pitch softball game when Jake (first child) was born”

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I love when baseball fans start cheering at the crack of the bat, before the camera even finds the ball.

[Rebecca Sutton @Rebecca423698]

I love when somebody says no and actually has the numbers to back it up.

SITE DIARIES 🏗️ — EPISODE 5
THE CONTRACTOR WHO SAID NO
We had a deadline.
The client wanted the floor slab completed by Friday.
By Wednesday evening, we were already behind.
I called the contractor.
“We need to increase manpower.”
He shook his head.
“We can't.”
“Why?”
“We don't have enough workers.”
I told him to bring another subcontractor.
He refused.
I was frustrated.
Then he showed me his numbers.
The problem wasn't manpower.
The problem was productivity.
Workers were waiting for materials.
Materials were arriving late.
The carpenters were waiting for reinforcement.
The steel fixers were waiting for drawings.
Everybody was busy.
Nobody was progressing.
We reorganized the sequence.
Materials were positioned before crews arrived.
Work fronts were released in sections.
The teams were coordinated instead of simply increased.
By Friday evening, the slab was ready.
The contractor had been right about one thing:
More people don't automatically mean more progress.
Sometimes the project doesn't need more workers.
It needs fewer bottlenecks.
