Shout out to @KnightsBaseball pitcher Zach Franklin for giving my eldest son a sports memory he will never forget.
He’s not super into baseball but I took him to the game tonight for some father-son time, and he patiently waited the entire game hoping to catch a foul ball.
What he got was better. Franklin at the end of the game tossed him a ball. And he’s hooked now. The entire ride home he was talking about his ball and the schedule and Franklin’s gesture.
Sports are wonderful, man. Kindness is even better.

Helluva follow up question from my coworker @chapelfowler
Nicole Auerbach@NicoleAuerbach
Geno, told by a reporter that there are photos/videos of a pregame handshake with Dawn, says that the reporter missed the point of what he was saying. “Anybody that's been in the NCAA Tournament, you know what I'm talking about,” Geno said.

Status quo.
Chapel helps me (or whoever The State Newspaper's USC WBB beat reporter at the time is) cover South Carolina WBB in the postseason so I'm not a one-man show. He joins for NCAA Tournament coverage once Clemson MBB is eliminated.
He's been doing it for four years.
