Most of you know me from playing for Team Czech Republic. 🇨🇿
But before the WBCs, Tokyo, and the national team, there were years of playing baseball right here at home in the Czech Extraliga.
I never really had my career numbers put together in one place.
So here they are.

Milwaukee is home to plenty...the World Champion #Brewers, Harvey Kuenn's wooden leg and, of course, one of the most haunted hotels in America.
Sine 1893, the Pfister has been welcoming guests...both wanted AND unwanted. #HOVGPodcast #Halloween

Australia has announced their Asia Professional Baseball Championship roster. I wrote a couple lines about each player to let you know who they are, as well as the strategy on selection.
Story available in English and Japanese.

Every October I save an @AdamLGNevill book to read. He writes what I think are some of the most frightening horror fiction out there. (My fave: LAST DAYS or NO ONE GETS OUT ALIVE.)
Excited to start this one.

I may have gone a little card shopping crazy that I barely remember during one of my first sleepless baby nights.
Don’t regret it, though!

when i interviewed the @Brewers social team, i asked where they find inspiration for their edits. they rattled off roman holiday with audrey hepburn, 2001: a space odyssey, apocolypse now, hundreds of beavers, pulp fiction’s title cards, and a24’s trailer style.

I’ve been way behind to start my year, but here is my 2026 books I enjoyed list! As always, just the books I liked.
1. NOT A SPECK OF LIGHT - Laird Barron
A remarkable combination of weird lit, cosmic horror, noir, and a love of dogs. Laird Barron is a favorite of mine.

30. LOST IN THE DARK - John Langan
One of horror lit’s greatest writers and a master of the craft

Shoki Oda is drafted first overall by the Yomiuri Giants of NPB, although he has stated his intention to challenge himself in the United States.
Rintaro Sasaki opened the floodgates. Now Shoki Oda, who set a Summer Koshien fastball velocity record and starred at the U-18 World Cup Qualifier, is set to come to the states, too.
From me and @AyakoOikawa:
