Existing quietly (sometimes) at the intersection of sports & a few dialects of nerdery. I constitute a fraction of @numbersmlb.bsky.social.
I feel like I talk a lot about things I dislike, so let’s discuss something I like, and that’s nights that look and feel like this one. Cool, dry, breezy, covered with a low, textured overcast lit from below by the city lights. Perfect.
"Did you hear about the Shedd's new beluga whales? They all double parked and got written cetaceans!"
Courtesy of the fog and the wind direction, the local fireworks were a little more post-apocalyptic than intended. A little on the nose as metaphors go.
Cubs win. Brewers left in a sad puddle of their own leakings. As it should be. Now get the hell out of that awful ballpark.
I have not seen a win in person in three years. I legitimately have never seen this light show before.
I don’t think I can handle playing too deep into the game, but you know I had to stop and pay my respects at the intro
Do not, under any circumstances, explain it to me, but what the hell is anyone talking about?
The Angels promoting both of these generic and not especially good ballplayers in the same transaction and assigning them the jersey number inverses of one another is a little bit funny
