Humongous win for the @SFGiants in the game that wouldn't end, an 11-inning slugfest.

6-1 now and both the Padres and Dodgers lost.

I can’t get too wrapped up in my team winning a championship. There are too many variables. What I can hope for is that we play well.

I think the Phillies are going to be a fun team to watch this season. We’ll be competitive. We can win the whole thing. But I no longer need that. I just want to feel engaged.

I enjoy the distraction. I want to see my team play well. Winning is not the only answer.

I forget, do baseball games usually have more than 1 run? #reds

Phillies are playing good ball. #MLB #Baseball #Phillies

Dodgers place Freddie Freeman on 10-day IL for his ailing ankle. He'll be eligible to return on April 10.

Dodgers go on a road trip to PHI and WAS til April 9, and start a 6-game homestand on April 11.

I suspect this IL stint is Dodgers' way of telling Freddie, "No, you're not playing on this road trip no matter how much you beg. Stay home and rest, PLEASE."

The Los Angeles Dodgers have an air of invincibility around them after becoming the only reigning champions to start an MLB season 8-0 despite not yet playing their best baseball. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/04/04/baseball/mlb/la-dodgers-look-unbeatable/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #mlb #losangelesdodgers #shoheiohtani #daveroberts #maxmuncy

Shohei Ohtani hit a game-winning home run to left-center field in the ninth inning, and the Los Angeles Dodgers kept their season-opening win streak alive by rallying from an early five-run deficit. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/04/03/baseball/shohei-ohtani-walk-off-homer/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #shoheiohtani #losangelesdodgers #atlantabraves

Seiya Suzuki hit two home runs to help the Chicago Cubs complete a three-game demolition of the Athletics. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/sports/2025/04/03/baseball/mlb/suzuki-cubs-rout-athletics/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #baseball #mlb #chicagocubs #athletics #seiyasuzuki

Big bomb by Pete Alonso allows Mets to win. I can't say the game was fun to watch because there was some sketch baseball played, but a W is a W.

Wilmer Flores is on FIRE. 4 home runs in the first six games. @SFGiants lead Houston 2-0 in the first inning.

Giants off to a 4-1 record in this young season.

Heads up to my friends in the #Chicago area and Northwest suburbs: the 9yo's little league #baseball practice schedule is posted, so for the next few weeks, we can reliably expect cold, rainy weather on Wednesdays and Saturday mornings.

Sorry for the inconvenience. I don't know why the baseball gods hate us.

When Strom Thurmond took his turn in 1957 to stop Civil Rights, both the Detroit Tigers and Boston Red Sox were still segregated.
