I remember Mickey Mantle talking about how he spoke to his father about how hard Baseball is. His father said, “That’s okay! You can quit and come work in the coal mine with me!”
Sad. I miss watching baseball with my dad. It was so reassuring somehow. Oh my God if he was still alive he would be swearing like a sailor about all this.

Mickey never complained again.
I love this story. Reminds me of something my dad would have said about being a Marine.
No MiLB this season, unfortunately.

Most mlb players are planning to knee this season
Same with video games. I can’t believe how I wasted so much time back then.
