This is Carter Jensen’s 6th career leadoff homer — all while playing catcher & this year That’s two more leadoff homers as catcher in a career than anyone else in MLB history
Another leadoff homer! Carter Jensen's six leadoff homers this year are the most by a Royal in a single season!

Myles Straw’s baseball card collection belongs in a museum, one grail after another. This is a story I’ve looked forward to writing all year, about Straw’s “semi obsession” and what these pieces of cardboard mean to us: mlb.com/bluejays/news/myles-…

Sadaharu Oh and Hank Aaron, 1970s. At the time, Aaron was MLB's home run king while Sadaharu Oh is still the home run king of NPB.

Jake Burger broke down the funny story behind how his 23 (!!!) swing streak was broken. ⬇️
Jake Burger’s 23 consecutive pitches swung at in 2023 is the longest streak by a non-pitcher in the pitch-tracking era (2008) only longer, by a pitcher: Jorge De La Rosa, 25 in a row from 7/10-8/26 in '08 h/t the wizard, @JasonBernard_

Dan Wilson played for the Mariners when they last won the AL West in 2001. Now he manages them He’s the 3rd individual to play for & then manage sequential division titles for a team, joining: Craig Counsell MIL (2011 plyr, ‘18 mgr) Bruce Bochy SD (1984, ‘96) h/t @EliasSports
The Mariners can clinch the AL West today with a win or an Astros’ loss Here are the starting lineups from September 19, 2001 — the last time they clinched the division ⬇️
