@JeremySchaap @MikeFarrellESPN @E60 @jabbottum31 @umichbaseball @Yankees @Angels @Shaquemgriffin @Cars_Pickett16 @ChickenMan3010 Jeremy, congratulations to you, Mike, Jim, and everyone involved in this tremendous effort. “Southpaw” is a gift for future generations in understanding what true determination looks like, while inspiring a mindset that refuses one to accept anything less than possibility.

Not too shabby--a testament to the power of Jim Abbott's story and the creative talents of @MikeFarrellESPN and the entire @E60 team. cc: @jabbottum31 @umichbaseball @Yankees @Angels @TMead2002 @Shaquemgriffin @Cars_Pickett16 @ChickenMan3010

@MikeDiGiovanna @rmatwick Wishing you the very best, Mike. You never shortchanged the commitment to your craft. Others just entering the business would be wise to study your journey and professionalism.

Friends, fellow scribes, media members and followers, some personal news …

Seven batting titles, Rookie of the Year in ‘67, MVP honors in ‘77, 3,053 career hits, first-ballot HOFer, Roberto Clemente Award winner & an 18-time All-Star are but a few of Rod Carew’s career highlights. Saved his best for yesterday when he became a United States citizen!

Great outing with OLu baseball against Corona del Sol a couple weeks ago. FB: 82-84 VB: 10 HB: 15 SL: 73-74 VB: -1.75 HB: -9.27 @Brianbassbsbl @SideArmNation @FlatgroundApp #uncommitted #olubaseball

30 Years Ago Today: New York #Yankees pitcher Jim Abbott, born without a right hand, throws a no-hitter vs. the Cleveland Indians at Yankee Stadium! (September 4, 1993) #Inspiration #MLB #Baseball #History

In recognition of the 33rd anniversary of the historic signing of the Americans with Disabilities Act, MLB salutes the great @jabbottum31.

Pretty cool

m.facebook.com/thebsblr/video… A magic moment in baseball and American history, delivered by the best to ever sit behind the microphone. How blessed we were. #RIPVin #Icon

@slbeesradio @415dc @Markgubicza @VictorRojas Steve, there was a long list of folks extremely happy for you during that opportunity. I hope you will have a chance to do so again during what has been a distinguished broadcasting career!

It was six years ago this weekend in Baltimore that I did my second series on radio for the Angels. Great memories that will last a lifetime! Thanks to @TMead2002 @415dc Mark Langston, Terry Smith, @Markgubicza and @VictorRojas for welcoming me into the booth.

@jabbottum31 Jimmy, from the time I first met your dad at the 1988 press conference, it was obvious where the tremendous influence for the determination, passion & character you have displayed throughout your life was derived. Not sure I have met a more humble man & proud dad. #RIPMike

Found this in his office. Michael J Abbott. Couldn’t love you more. So long Dad

@TaylorBlakeWard Taylor, sending condolences and prayers to you and your family as you navigate through this devastating news.

my brother Josh unexpectedly died today while responding as a ski patroller (his dream job) in Sun Valley, Idaho - he was an adventurer, total goofball, and a total original, and I love him very much, gonna miss you big bro

@dunnwriter @Angels @AngelsNews1727 @goldmedalmind @OldSchool80s Donald Edward Baylor!

What player comes to mind seeing this? @Angels @TMead2002 @AngelsNews1727 @goldmedalmind #baseballisback @OldSchool80s #baseball

@HOFprez @baseballhall @Jeff_Idelson What a great acquisition Josh. It will be an honor to eventually sign that baseball. And I’ll pay for breakfast as well!

Had a great breakfast with Jeff Idelson and had him sign this baseball I recently bought in a local store signed by previous @BaseballHall Presidents/Directors Ed Stack and Howard Talbot. Still need a few more signatures (👀 @TMead2002)

His first start April 1, 2018 doesn’t seem that long ago. Few have been more determined to achieve & succeed at attaining such high personal goals. And the best is yet to come. Congratulations Shohei! #MVP

There are certain individuals you just can’t wait to spend some time with. They make you laugh, think, reflect, all while providing tidbits making you wiser by the visits end. Above all, they are gifted listeners whose friendship you treasure. TY for all the above Ray. #RIPRay

@RogerLodge7 Roger, just unbelievable news. Those 12 years were filled with some incredible memories shared between the two of you. Try & navigate through the sadness remembering James’ great smile & his huge appreciation & appetite for life.

It is with indescribable sadness that I announce the passing of my Dear Brother & Radio Producer James Allen. He was a Loving Husband, Father and Son. Worked together 5 days a week for more that 12 years. R.I.P. Jimmy. I truly Love You!

Best wishes for a special 60th bday to ⁦@JRHowellJR⁩. His passion for the game & nurturing of those he leads with Inland Empire 66ers continues to amaze. images.app.goo.gl/RCmUVN6aj5mNG5…

@itsrachswan @Swanee54 Rachel, few in sports PR have had a greater impact than your dad. His enthusiasm, dedication & passion for the game & his responsibilities have only grown throughout an amazing career. But for all he has accomplished & experienced, there is nothing he is prouder of than you!

The day has finally come!!!! After 43 years in the biz, my dad has finally announced his retirement coming at the end of the season. To the hardest working, most passionate and all around greatest person I know, CONGRATS!! You deserve this!!! ❤️

While today we remember & pay tribute to their collective sacrifices, they shall always be individuals lost. In memory & honor of Santa Ana, CA native, Corp. Jason W. Morrow, member of Darkhorse Battalion, who passed from wounds sustained in combat operations, 6/27/06. #Respect

@slbeesradio @415dc @VictorRojas @Markgubicza Steve, you are a perfect example of “good things happen to good people.” You so deserved that opportunity and I certainly hope there is another such chance in your future. With great respect.

I can’t believe it was five years ago today that I got “called up” by the Angels for a three game series in Seattle. I will never be able to thank @TMead2002 @415dc @VictorRojas @Markgubicza and others for their support that weekend and 2 months later in Baltimore.
