Imagine being able to see Walker pitch against the Dodgers during that trip 👀. And what a year The Long Game! Another year of great write ups and insight from you, Molly. And great chats!

Merry Christmas, Molly!

And thanks for everything - reading your newsletters are always the high point of my day, your writing is SO good

and of course hearing about Canelo is always a special treat - he will be so excited when he puts his little paws into the snow, thrilled beyond measurement - have a great time up there in the mountains!

Merry Christmas to All of my fellow Long Gamers, and God Bless the great, and now (way too early) late great Rickey Henderson!

I too hope you enjoy the Holiday in the eastern winter wonderland, Molly.

I look forward to the next Book Club, with its timely subject.

I apologize for missing the last one, and want to thank Deb for suggesting the wonderful and wonderfully written "Bottom of the 33rd".

Love all around, and as they used to say in the borough across Roebling's bridge, "We'll see ya next year!"

Every once in a while, I think of buying baseball cards for my kid... but then I look them up and see how much they SUCK now. I mean, the quality is high. But most of them are like the cards per pack, six packs per box... and then like $50/box. (To be fair, the Topps Heritage that Molly got is pretty good value.) But it just bugs me that something that used to be disposable and fun was taken over by "collectors" who have destroyed something that was meant to get kids into the game.

Best holiday wishes to my baseball family. Here’s to a great ‘25. Have I mentioned that Juan Soto is now a Met?
