Last week I got the opportunity to volunteer with kids from the little town of “Mefalsim” , these kids who their friends, families and neighbors were murdered right in front of their eyes. Crazy how much baseball can make a kid smile after the horrors they went through 🇮🇱⚾️❤️

How does the manager of one of Major League Baseball’s final four teams unwind when the workday is over and it’s the night before Game 1 of the NLCS?  If you’re Brewers skipper Pat Murphy, you coach.

I don’t have all the answers but I love baseball because of the ups and downs and constant grind. So here’s some thoughts for the “X hitting” war that is going on right now.

7 years ago today 🗓️ The Nationals scored 3 runs in the 8th inning to defeat the Brewers in their NL Wild Card game 🔥

Big year ahead as he keeps on climbing up the ranks, follow his name closely… Coming off big year at @PJCBaseball and a hot summer at the @CalRipkenLeague & @WBSC U23 European Championship qualifiers

🚨 PLAYER SPOTLIGHT 🚨 Nadav Machlin | @Machlin_N INF | JUCO Sophomore | UNCOMMITTED 📏 5’11” | 185 lbs 🇮🇱U23 National team 🏫 Paris Junior College | @PJCBaseball @CoachCox19 | @NatanBash

Pete Crow-Armstrong has faced 28 teams and 286 pitchers in 22 stadiums so far this season, which isn't over yet Joe DiMaggio faced 7 teams and 321 pitchers in 9 stadiums in his entire (regular season) career, which spanned 13 seasons between 1936-1951. It's a different sport.

Congrats to @Machlin_N and @israel_baseball on their runner up finish in the U23 European Championships in Spain!

Proud to represent Israel at the U23 European Championship 🇮🇱 Went 8 for 15 with 4 HR and 10 RBI, starting every game at SS and hitting 2nd in the lineup. Proud of our run and grateful every time I get to wear Israel across my chest. 🇮🇱

Nadav Machlin with a two run homer and Israel leads 12-0 over Slovakia. This is a stunning result for a Slovakia team that is largely composed of players who qualified for the 2027 European Championship

Tal Dean homers to give Israel a 14-0 lead as they’re putting the finishing touches on a big win over Slovakia

Israel beats Slovakia 15-2 and has essentially booked their place in the semifinals. Slovakia remains alive for a semifinal berth

Foster Griffin was signed for $5.5 million. Curtis Mead was traded for last year's sixth-round pick. The former gave the Nats 7 sharp innings, the latter just gave them a three-run lead with a two-run homer.

The Braves top our weekly power rankings once again 🔥 (via @JoelReuterBR)

Chicago has completely turned it around this season 👏

Grateful for my freshman year at @PJCBaseball INF | Region 14 All-Conference Honorable Mention 43 GP .350 AVG / .509 OBP / .537 SLG 1.046 OPS 4 HR 33 BB / 10 K / 11 HBP (In 171 PA)! Want to thank my coaches @CoachCox19 @Boonep19 and @israel_baseball for all the support this season.

Things have not gotten better for the Cubs

The Grant and Danny “Nats are over .500” parade is on for tomorrow! Tuesday at 5:25 PM. It’s finally happening! ⚾️ We will walk from the station (1015 Half Street SE) to the CF gate. 4 blocks total. ⚾️ The plan will be for people to make signs and wear Nats gear and walk with us to the ballpark. ⚾️ We will go to Walter’s at the ballpark for a game watch and hang at the start of tomorrow’s 6 PM game. (Walters will give the first 100 fans in Nats gear that show up a free beer).
