I got invited into San Quentin to play tennis with and against the inmates, then received permission to write about it. Huge thanks to @godovasquez for the incredible photography capturing this amazing day. A life-changing experience is an understatement: apnews.com/article/sports…
Just awesome!
Rollie Fingers has been to 33 straight inductions since his own. Today, during a tour of our collections vault, we told him we have 40,000 artifacts. He said now you have 40,0001 and gave us a tube of his mustache wax!

An obituary on a beloved bunny I was fortunate enough to call a friend, @AThegreat100. He will be dearly missed: apnews.com/article/ballpa…
Giants CEO Larry Baer so appreciated ballpark therapy bunny @AThegreat100. Baer, via text: “We remember him well for his surprise frequent visits to the ballpark. We remember the comfort he brought those who loved him and the joy he brought so many.”
Career-first: just interviewed a sweet bunny, 4 1/2-month-old therapy bunny Alex, and he gave me a kiss, too. It belongs to Kei Kato, who lost her restaurant during COVID.
A wonderful memory!
Logan, his dear dad Michael and the sweet therapy bunny @AThegreat100 at Fall League last year.
Absolutely crushed and heartbroken to learn we’ve lost the sweet, incomparable bunny Alex the Great. Much love to owners Kei and Josh, and beyond blessed to have been Alex’s “auntie.”
My sweet bunny friend @AThegreat100 beat cancer and he’s back at the ballpark and healthy bringing so much joy!
Clayton Woo, father of Mariners pitcher Bryan Woo, and Alameda Little Leaguers and their families pay tribute to beloved umpire Brendan Barker today on the very field where he poured out his heart and soul for years — sometimes calling five games a day.
Bob Costas asked Ichiro what his favorite American expression was during his first season in the MLB. His answer is PRICELESS.
Delightful Lou Helmig, a star @OaklandBallers outfielder, is from Bavaria. I’m from a Bavarian-themed village called Leavenworth, Washington. Special to share his story as a third-generation professional baseball player from Germany dating to pre-WWII: apnews.com/article/lou-he…
