Happy Father's Day

And a little bit about baseball

Hey yo,

Whether you’re a dad, an expecting dad, partner to a dad, or anyone else who for any reason celebrates, Happy Father’s Day.

And to those of you who may not have a dad to call or take to a ballgame today, for whatever reason, I’m sending you love. As someone who doesn’t have a mom around to call on Mother’s Day, I know how hard days like this can be.

Many of you who know me, if not personally, know what I do for a living. To those of you who don’t, I’m a freelance writer. And yesterday, I published an essay in GQ about the meaning of minor league baseball and one of the greatest sports movies ever made.

I never share my work stuff here because this forum isn’t about my work stuff. But, considering my relationship with my kids plays a key role in the story, I thought it might be apropos. I hope you’ll take a few minutes to read it.
