I'm all about the Owls but dang it's hard to pull against a team named Boone Big Foots.

I get it. Our hitters like them too, but for different reasons

They play at Appalachian State which is a great place to play. Last night it was an atypical 56 degrees.

That's the most beautiful setting in all of baseball. I grew up in Mountain City and spent many days on Appalachian State campus.

I agree. That campus has a great setting.

Alright. That’s it. I’m going to see Big Foots play at Appy St and Owls play at Forest City this Summer.

Haven’t been there in a long time. Used to ski Beech and Sugar back in the day. My Dad ran the Grandfather Marathon. Beautiful area for sure!

Sitting on a patio between Boone and Blowing Rock with some family right now. Cool up here. Just off a June record for cold last night. Kids all sleeping upstairs or hot tubbing or foosballing
downstairs.
Not a bad place to watch some Supers on Hulu.

He’s picked his own music. I’ve only seen him pitch one inning at a home game; tonight’s was on the road.

I’m guessing the Grateful Dead jokes are pretty tired for him, but I couldn’t resist .

Look at Friday’s performance: 9 K, 2H over 6 2/3. He was pulled because of pitch limit.
