Obviously he's the guy in black and white with the big mustache. Just like @akschaaf.bsky.social is Rickie Weeks.

They have a racing salmon named Humpy and a star player known for his ass. Perhaps it's good that most Seattle baseball games were played after dark.

It's a home-run derby to determine the winner after the 12th right?

JR Radcliffe @jrradcliffe.bsky.social · 19h

I still cannot believe the Rockies never once got Freeland in a game that series.

JR Radcliffe @jrradcliffe.bsky.social · 19h

How dare you! That game ruled!

... says the interested party who followed the team who played the winner.

Not counting Wild Card games, this is the first winner-take-all postseason game to go 12 innings since Game 7 of the 1924 World Series.

Walter Johnson, after throwing four scoreless innings out of the bullpen, was the winning pitcher in that one.

Runner up for the Heisman and the name absolutely helped!

JR Radcliffe @jrradcliffe.bsky.social · 20h

Can you imagine if someone named Colt Keith were a college quarterback? He'd win the Heisman before even throwing a pass.
