I cover the Pirates. ✍️ Book-Rule Bucs🎙️ OffBeat. I'm a simple man making his way through the galaxy, like my father before me. Black Lives Matter. He/Him










"It’s been fun. It’s been challenging. I feel like I’m getting better.” Konnor Griffin has taken 100 Major League plate appearances. There has been some good, some bad, some changes. I dove into the data and got Griffin's input for Book-Rule Bucs: bookrulebucs.substack.com/p/stumpf-takin…


April was a monster month for North Shore Nine. Across our social platforms, NS9 content reached over 23 million views with nearly 700,000 engagements, while the podcast side kept growing in a big way too. Podcast listens were up 145% compared to last April, YouTube growth jumped 127%, and we peaked at No. 15 on the baseball podcast charts. We seriously can’t thank this community enough. Whether you’re watching NS9LIVE!, tuning into OffBeat, listening to Bucco Brew, jumping in the postgame chat, sharing graphics, or just yelling with us through another wild month of Pirates baseball, you’re the reason this thing keeps growing. And of course, thank you to our partners at @primantibros, De Fer Coffee & Tea, @SeatGeek, @BleavNetwork and @FanDuel for helping make it all happen. #RaiseIt

Today it was announced that this story placed first nationally in the @APSE_sportmedia (Div. B / Long Features) contest. Just wanted to say thanks to all who were involved in the project, especially Nathan Mallett & @jharrison9292 for allowing me to tell their story.
