I got whacked! After 40+ years in the industry, including 28+ @ThePressofAC, I’ve been let go. I’ve been luckier than so many other good people in this biz. If anyone needs a superb editor, part or full time, reach out. If not, send money & sandwiches! 😬🤪 @APSE_sportmedia

I’m concerned by how closely and intensely I am following updates from the #Mets’ intrasquad game. Concerned but not even a little surprised. #LGM 🤪⚾️👍🏻

@bendickson__ Talk about mixed emotions.

Francisco Alvarez just launched a three-run homer to left off Sean Manaea.

@BenMank77 Sounds as if I need to watch the director’s cut! 😂👍🏻

He got out of the slam and became the northeast regional director for Miracle-Gro.

@BBGreatMoments Probably a walk-off grand slam. KevinMcReynolds and #Mets at Shea. Also saw Astros hit two grand slams in top of ninth at Shea. And the Giants hit into a triple play at Shea. Barry Bonds was out at the plate for the third out. #LGM

What’s the rarest thing you’ve ever seen happen at a baseball game in person?

@baseballinpix July 30, 1969, Shea Stadium. Astros beat my Metsies twice, 16-3 & 11-5. G1: Astros scored 11 — including 2 grand slams — in 9th. G2: Astros got 10 in 3rd, including HR by pitcher Larry Dierker off Nolan Ryan. Gil Hodges famously walked out to LF to remove Cleon Jones. Yikes. #LGM

Do you remember the first MLB game you attended? Tell us about it.👇️

Might even raise a little sand …

@DaleJr @Tim_Dugger The Bangles’ “Hazy Shade of Winter”

@Tim_Dugger Be interesting to make a list of covers that top the originals.

In my opinion this is the best version of this song

I want that m**********r’s name and face to be everywhere. I want him to have not one peaceful day for the rest of his life. I want his every day to be worse than the previous one. #GoodVsEvil #ReneeGood #Minneapolis #JusticeForRenee

@jerryblevins No argument! 😂

@ChasPlainview They don’t deserve it then. 😆

You should only be allowed to play for a country in the WBC if you can recite their national anthem. lol.

@chelsea_janes But tonight that score is bringing joy to fans of all teams from coast to coast. 😉⚾️👍🏻

My newest opinion is that spring training games should have a 30 combined runs cutoff

@ACPressMulranen @McGurkSports @bybillevans @nickkosko59 Fair enough. 🤓

@ChasPlainview @McGurkSports @bybillevans @nickkosko59 A scholarship named after me? Mmm, that would be pretty cool 😂 But let’s hope nothing falls on me 😂 L

Oh no 😭 It’s all over… three days of 12-plus hours. Tired, hungry… but it’s all worth it for the best high school sport ever!! Just a few hours ago it was packed, now it’s just us media. Kinda depressing … Until next season!! @McGurkSports @bybillevans @nickkosko59

@ACPressMulranen @McGurkSports @bybillevans @nickkosko59 It’ll probably never happen, but if it ever should, I want you to know I will try to get a scholarship named after you. So no worries. 👍🏻😎😂

@ChasPlainview @McGurkSports @bybillevans @nickkosko59 😂 😂 yeah, that’s a new fear that was unlocked this weekend 😂

@AndrewMarchand Replacing DeRosa, yes? 🤪 #EWTCSM

@MollieeWalkerr 🎉🎂👍🏻

Oh, and Mollie Walker turns 29 today😁

@RushmoreLists My Seger entry would be “Rock and Roll Never Forgets.” It’s a better song that gets overlooked because it didn’t have a starring role in “Risky Business.”

Every once in a while, music gets a little self-aware and writes a song about itself. What are some great songs that are about music? Here's our Mount Rushmore: "Killing Me Softly with His Song" - Roberta Flack "I Love Rock 'n' Roll" - Joan Jett & the Blackhearts "I Write the Songs" - Barry Manilow "Old Time Rock and Roll" - Bob Seger What's yours?
