One night you’re being interviewed by @SNETCampbell on @Sportsnet about your son making his hometown debut against the Jays…the next you’re up all night because your dog’s got diarrhea from eating rabbit poop in the backyard. Such is life.

Many of you contributed financially to get Wes Johnson to Florida in March. I’m forever grateful to all who helped. Wes passed away this morning in St. Thomas, Ontario. 💔

I hadn’t realized that Miami would turn my son into Sonny Crockett so soon!

@bballdad44745 Given that Liam’s family dog is named Moose, this is very apropos.

@bballdad44745 There’s a kid who lives in our basement when he’s in Toronto playing for Team Canada! I know you get it. ❤️

@lochlahn Cheered on Team Canada for you! But the Phillies were good sports.

Since I’m back in Philly for the week, I won’t be covering the Phillies-Canada game today. Probably for the best, I’m a little biased…

@SNETCampbell Done. Thank you for sharing this story. Wes and his family are inspirational, and I hope they have a magical Spring Training trip.

Part 2 of 2: His last wish is to attend the Blue Jays’ game in Dunedin on March 10. His parents quit work to be at his side and have no income. They’re solely responsible for financing the trip. If you are able to assist, know they are grateful.

Part 1 of 2: I went to visit Wes Johnson in St. Thomas, Ontario yesterday. In the next month or two, he will pass away.

Cheering for Canada 🇨🇦 will be a little more personal at this World Baseball Classic.

Some tough WBC news for Canada as Freddie Freeman withdraws for personal reasons. Dodgers star played in past two tourneys. Jordan Romano is out too, but on flip side, big boost for Canadian rotation as Jameson Taillon is in. Also now in are C Liam Hicks and INF Tyler Black.

I was trying to search for a pic of our entire family at a Jays game and my “baseball game” search resulted in 2,019 photos on my phone. Never did find that photo I was looking for…

“Leading off the World Series in your seventh ever big league start does not sound like the sort of on-boarding baseball HR would come up with.” - Cathal Kelly
How can you not love baseball (and baseball writers!)?

So @bballdad44745, my son’s playing against your son this weekend. Friendly wager for a beer the next time you’re at Rogers Centre?

Connor Hicks ties himself for the league lead in HR’s, blasting a first inning 𝐆𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐒𝐥𝐚𝐦 for the @WVBlackBears ‼️💣
The swing also pushes Hicks’ OPS to 1.610 through 10+ games.👀

My worlds collided this week with the @mlbdraftleague hosting @BaseballCANJNT in Frederick.
Was only right to head down for a couple days and take in the action.
Live game right now followed by another three in West Virginia (6/13-6/15).
