Henry Chadwick is often considered the father of baseball. He wrote the first rule book, created the box score, and was the first to keep track of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs.
If you're having trouble picking a team to root for, maybe this will help. Note: I did this from memory, so it's entirely possible that I missed someone. If so, please note it in an LTE.
A new family moved in a few houses down about a month ago. Shortly after, I noticed they changed their driveway lights to a red and a green bulb, like Christmas or something. As I mentioned, they just moved in, so that means they purposefully changed to those bulbs. I couldn't imagine why. Driving through the neighborhood, I've noticed a couple other houses with red and green driveway lights. I'm wondering if there's some weird cult I've been missing out on.
I'm a little too young to have gotten into Commander Cody but I remember some older cousins who were into him and I had a sense that he was kinda a freaky country guy. This was their only "hit" but they had a pretty loyal following for a while in the early 70s and definitely had a proto-influence on alt-country bands in the 90s. George Frayne, AKA Commander Cody, passed away a week ago from cancer at the age of 77.

Frank Crosetti was a coach for the Twins from 1970-71.
The Twins quest for 90 losses wraps up today. Charlie Barnes get the coveted Closing Day start, and all I really want to see is Byron Buxton hitting some homers.
At the end of the season, it seems like we should look back an
