BTFTD-jack leiter makes his MLB debut for the Texas Rangers today. The feelings of pride and accomplishment for Jack and his family will be incredible. He’s the latest example of every MLB player who tossed a ball in his backyard that now gets to do it in the biggest and best yards

12 out of 10. Nick is amazing. Great food, company and experience

Great call, Eovaldi and Ryan

BTFTD-in baseball, like virtually any industry, you are only as strong as your ENTIRE team. While we obsess over the star players and they get paid multi-millions the Detroit Tigers don’t win yesterday without Matt Vierling and the Arizona Diamondbacks don’t without Randall Grichuk. In baseball a

With an eye towards Omaha and the College World Series, very much looking forward to seeing Arkansas Baseball and Texas Tech Baseball with Kyle Peterson at 7et on ESPN2. Can’t have enough baseball

John Sterling is exactly what you want your teams voice to be. Passionate, loyal, authentic, proud, unique-a person who feels what the fan does. Happy for you John. Enjoy-you have earned it.

BTFTD-Andrew McCutchen with career homerun number 300 as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Philadelphia Phillies is worthy of the great celebration his teammates gave him and the family who returned the ball. For the accomplishment and for who he is. Baseball is better with Cutch!!!

First pitch for Sunday night baseball is 7:45 est, 4:45 local time in Los Angeles

BTFTD-20 year old Jackson Merrill has been outstanding for @padres. And what’s with the 20 year old Jackson’s? Merrill, Chourio and Holliday. Of course the first 20 was Andrew Jackson and all three of these guys are making multiple Andrew Jackson’s

Wait, what. Can you please elaborate on the last part of your tweet? Marty Smith

BTFTD-The Vinnie and Bobby show in Kansas City is playing all the hits. Rolling up 9 runs in the bottom of the first inning and sweeping the Astros has the makings of “hey everybody, check us out. We are here and we plan on staying.” And part 2, “Houston we have a problem.”

BTFTD-(baseball thought for the day) While Craig Counsell justifiably landed a huge deal to manage the Cubs, long time baseball man Pat Murphy has the Brewers rolling along. Peralta, Yelich, Miley etc etc. One man’s gold mine may prove to be another’s silver lining.

9.9 on message delivery. Awesome.

BTFTD-For all the talk about the strength of the NL West and AL West the early season returns on the AL Central are very strong. The Cleveland Guardians have the best run differential in the sport, the Detroit Tigers have been able to win despite all sorts of offensive issues and the Kansas City Royals…

The Orioles adding Jackson Holliday to an already talent rich roster is like being told for winning the $4,865,987,037 lottery, you will also receive a ticket purchasing bonus of $1,3967,874,039. Enjoy Baltimore Orioles

Right on

We are not in a position to dismiss any

BTFTD-it’s great and important to see respected pitchers acknowledge the rash of injuries are the result of a rash of reasons.

BTFTD-Hank Aaron. 50 years ago this day set a new home-run record in Major League Baseball. Amazing feat for a man with incredibly strong hands and a determination beyond imagination.
