“The Greatest Game” is a story about an epic baseball game played under devastating circumstances by extraordinary men. Writing this has been one of the most meaningful personal and professional experiences of my life. I’m thrilled to finally share it!

I’d like to thank @Narratively for believing in and publishing this story as the winner of the inaugural Profile Prize. I’m honored and humbled that it was selected by the incredible guest judges @rtraister, @likaluca and Gay Talese.

If you want to learn how this story came to life almost 80 years after the final pitch was thrown and 12 years after I began reporting it, Narratively has also published a short reflection I wrote.

I don't have the right words for this.
All I can say is, Klamath Falls needs watchdogs as much as any other community. And the reporters who are eager to do that work need to be paid enough to do it.
