That was a heartbreaking ending for the Phillies.

I’m unexpectedly sad about it. Feels like buying season tix is the only way around it.

I’ve been reviewing a lot of EPUBs for publishers lately and have noticed some themes. If making digital content is part of what you do, maybe you’ll find it useful. #a11y #eprdctn laurabrady.ca/blog/ebook-a...

Sorry to be so obnoxious with my baseball posts. You might want to mute me for a few weeks.

I had four people plus me trying to get tickets this morning and we got nothing. I am a little crushed.

That's insane because they are both such important contributors to this team. Wild.

Both Myles Straw and Davis Schneider have talked about getting to a point where they thought about quitting baseball and it’s so great to see them here now.

Yanks were Judge or nothing.

They’re like a pack of hungry wolves

The postgame celebration interviews conducted by @thehazelmae are always my favourite.

Soaked and soaking it up. We all are. Awesome stuff, Hazel.
