I live and work in Los Angeles, enjoying the sports scene with baseball being a constant love throughout his life. Dodger Stadium is easily my favorite to attend with its rich history and classic Southern California aesthetic.

Last Updated: October 16th, 2026 by Matthew BrownEnglish is a hard language. Maybe the hardest. With the United States being the melting pot of the world, it has seen a lot of different types of names cross its shores. We're taking a look at some of the players in MLB history who had their names changed or pronounced differently thanks to the way Americans have spoken over the last 100 years. The channel called Game …
Last Updated: October 13th, 2026 by Matthew BrownOne of the more memorable playoffs in MLB history came in 1988. Not only was the World Series great, but the NLCS was a classic. Jolly Olive does a great job recapping this series with details that make it seem like he was there covering it in person. This is one of the reasons why I've always liked the National League more. There has always been a part …
Last Updated: October 9th, 2026 by Matthew BrownWe're going to talk about one of the more frustrating lists that you could talk about. When it comes to the All-Star Game, it is more of a recognition of the players who are just very good at playing baseball. The fact of the matter is, if you were very good, you would at least be a one-time All-Star. In this video, Jolly Olive does a very good …
Last Updated: October 7th, 2026 by Matthew BrownI want you to take a look at this introspection on one of the craziest careers in MLB history. Julio Franco was one of my favorite players, as he just continued his career year after year. It was a career that defined perseverance. It was a career that inspired so many people to say that age is just a number. Jolly Olive does a great job of encapsulating …
Last Updated: October 1st, 2026 by Matthew BrownDo you know about the one-handed pitcher who made it to the top level of baseball? I'm sure many of you seeing this do know about Jim Abbott, but for those who don't, I encourage you to watch this video by Baseball Doesn't Exist. Having been born with just one hand, Abbott would use the nub of his arm to basically balance his glove while he switched between …
Last Updated: September 29th, 2026 by Matthew BrownI was a part of a Little League team growing up, and we had our fair share of characters in the dugout. There was a really big kid who was strong and athletic. He could crush a baseball out of a college ballpark. He was definitely intimidating to face, but also one of the nicest guys that we had. In fact, none of our big kids were inherently …
Last Updated: September 25th, 2026 by Matthew BrownOne of the reasons why we watch sports is to watch greatness. We want to see humans exceed levels of competition that haven't been seen before. That's why we celebrate Hall of Famers the way we do. Cooperstown is a hallowed hall compared to all of the other sports halls of fame. You could say it's the hardest Hall of Fame to get into. That's why there are …
Last Updated: September 24th, 2026 by Matthew BrownI play in some recreational, slow-pitch softball leagues, and I enjoy getting to be outside and playing a version of this great game that is a little bit more accessible to everybody. I don't really try too hard because I'm not trying to get myself hurt. I'm not in the shape that I once was. Comparing My Softball Effort to Paid Athletes Yes, these may sound like excuses, …
Last Updated: September 22nd, 2026 by Matthew BrownWhen it comes to pitching, velocity has always been a focus. Even when we grew up playing baseball, organized or not, we would see an opposing pitcher and tell our friend, "Do you see how hard that guy's throwing?" Velocity has captured the imaginations of countless baseball fans throughout baseball history. Speaking of imaginations, there was a real player who ended up becoming a sort of tall tale. …
Last Updated: September 10th, 2026 by Matthew BrownBaseball has enjoyed a renaissance over the last handful of years. Its surge in popularity has been pretty evident compared to what we've seen in the other major sports in the United States. Even though I'm saying that the MLB has seen better growth in popularity than the NFL and NBA, that still doesn't mean that it has surpassed both of those leagues in total revenue on a …
