A baseball professional eager to continue to serve the game I love and owe so much.

MLK, RFK, Roy Wilkins, LBJ, Walter Reuther in front row, White House Rose Garden, during discussion of how to pass civil rights bill, today 1963: #NARA

Disappointed that Senator Klobuchar has opted out of the VP process. She did it with class and I'm sure she will find positive ways to help Joe Biden bring our nation back from the brink after the November election. Thank you Senator Klobuchar.

BREAKING: Sen. Klobuchar announces she is withdrawing from consideration to be Joe Biden's vice presidential choice: "I think this is a moment to put a woman of color on that ticket."

Question for the room, are we trying to play baseball or win a negotiation during a pandemic?

[Richard Engel @RichardEngel]

With Bolton's book, Supreme Court on DACA, LGBT discrimination, and a stream of mil officials speaking out, is the tide turning on Trump? Maybe those in positions of moral, political, military and legal authority are finally turning, finding a voice (guts)? - will it last?

The mess surrounding Baseball goes deeper than a summer w/o MLB. We are looking at a huge shake-up in the Minor Leagues, many quality communities losing their teams. The Game celebrates the Rickey/Robinson Legacy but abandoned the Civil Right Game when the nation needs it most.

Even though everyone in baseball has seen this coming, emotions are flowing tonight

Anger. Sadness. Disapointment. Profound worry about the future. And agreement this is one of baseball’s worst days ever

That’s from both sides. One quote:

“I can’t see a single ray of sunshine”

JFK announces civil rights bill, tonight 1963:
“The fires of frustration and discord are burning in every city….We face, therefore, a moral crisis as a country and as a people. It cannot be met by repressive police action”:

[JJ Cooper @jjcoop36]

One thing I repeatedly hear from scouts and front office officials. They all are noticing which MLB clubs are furloughing people and which ones are paying their employees for the duration. They steadfastly believe it will be an advantage for adding top talent going forward.

[Richard Engel @RichardEngel]

I’ve long worried how Trump would react when forced into a corner/ nervous/angry. For 3 years, he’s mostly gotten his way - passing though impeachment proceedings and various scandals; but times could be changing and reaching a head. The signs look dangerous.

College Football Hall of Fame looted during "protests" in Atlanta last night. Windows broken and some items may have been stolen.

[Chris Matthews @HardballChris]

I recall the courage of a 29 year-old who took on an unbeatable US senator, who, when his wife and daughter were killed, came home from DC every night to raise what was left of his family. I have to believe Americans will see past the gaffes to Joe Biden's guts and goodness.

Monday at 9PM ET on History, a new multi-part series GRANT debuts. Hope it is as solid as WASHINGTON.

[Dave Chase @chase62]

@RepCohen Happy Birthday, Congressman. Please keep doing all you do for Memphis and America! Maybe a run against Senator Blackburn in your future? Please!

[Daytona Tortugas @daytonatortugas]

GOOSEBUMPS. Watching 42 on the same field that Jackie graced for the first time in his professional career. Amidst uncertain times, this is a night we will never forget.

Welcome to Jackie Robinson Ballpark. We are the Daytona Tortugas. This is our community. #ForThe386

[Dan Rather @DanRather]

Watching President Obama’s graduation address tonight I think I finally understand Obamagate. It’s the scandal of having a president being able to speak with empathy, humor, insight, inspiration and in complete and coherent sentences.

[Taylor Branch @taylorbranch]

Thank you, Ted Widmer, for this reminder of service to uphold "We the People."
