I saw a tweet today on Madden Imagonnaleaveya, Nico's brother. He was out in California throwing the football & standing on the side lines w/a football that had the power "T" on it.
I went back to find the tweet but didn't see it anywhere.

On June 16 in Baseball History...​
  • 1909 - Jim Thorpe makes his baseball pitching debut for Rocky Mount (Eastern Carolina League) with a 4-2 win over Raleigh. It is the professional play in this year that will cause him to lose his medals won in the 1912 Olympics.

  • 1938 - Jimmie Foxx is walked a record six consecutive times by Browns pitchers as the Red Sox win 12-8.

  • 1945 - Dave Ferriss loses to the Yankees 3-2 after starting his career with eight victories � four of them shutouts � for the Red Sox.

  • 1978 - In the twelfth major-league season of a career speckled with near-misses, Cincinnati's Tom Seaver finally hurls a no-hitter. The Cardinals are the 4-0 victims as Seaver strikes out three.

  • 1989 - Rick Wolff, 37, writing an article on minor-league baseball for Sports Illustrated, finishes a three-day stint playing second base for the South Bend White Sox (Midwest League). He replaces Cesar Bernhardt and goes 4-for-7 against the Burlington Braves. Wolff will finish the year with the highest average of any Chicago White Sox farmhand.

  • 1993 - Ken Griffey, Jr., slugs his 100th career home run in Seattle's 6-1 victory over Kansas City to become the fourth-youngest to hit the century mark. Only Mel Ott, Eddie Mathews and Tony Conigliaro did it faster than the 23-year-old Griffey.

  • 1995 - Marlins outfielder Andre Dawson hits his 400th N.L. home run and 429th of his career in a 2-1 win over the Phillies.

Orlando Arcia has been playing phenomenally this season. He is about 30 plate appearances from qualifying due to his injury but he would be leading all NL shortstops in BA, OBP, and SLG. He is playing like the best SS in the league and I honestly can say I did not see this coming. He has been a very pleasant surprise.

I suppose it helps motivate, when you have a guy like Grissom pushing you.

I’m just salty because my employer changed my route. “Downtown is an important piece of our company and we need you downtown!” they said!
These people are vampire hipsters who don’t start coming out until noon and I just don’t jive with the whole downtown vibe.
