Thank you @HateItOrLevitt for taking the time to write this piece about my journey to work at @MLB, my connection to Israel Baseball since 2012, my love of @WBCBaseball, and more.
Enjoy this short read! I hope it inspires someone else to pursue a dream. 😄jewishinsider.com/2023/03/ma…
Since 2023, and for the rest of my life, one workday can't begin like normal.
October 7th.
By now, three years' worth of memories and emotions flood back together again on this day.
But with each passing year, one thing remains the same, and I can't begin my day without saying this clearly and without any fear.
No matter where life takes me or what I achieve in my career journey, I will always represent Israel and the Jewish people with the pride, love, respect, and perseverance that fill our people to the brim.
That's never going to change.
🇮🇱 💙
Thank you for recording this episode, @JeffPassan. 🙏🏼

On Sept. 25, 2016, José Fernández died in a boat crash. He was only 24. Ten years later, we talk with Christian Yelich and Dee Strange-Gordon about Fernández’s pitching brilliance, how he helped usher in baseball’s modern era and the legacy he left behind. youtube.com/watch?v=nr1_jkhK…
I can't believe it's been ten years.
I remember September 25, 2016 like it was yesterday. Every minute of it. Where I was. How frozen I felt. Total shock, unlike anything I had ever experienced.
That day, José Fernández became my final favorite baseball player ever.
I made a conscious promise to myself from that moment on to live a joyous life, make people smile whenever I could, cherish family time, and find meaningful work that I love, just like José, who was exactly my age, did every day wearing a @Marlins uniform and showing up at a baseball field.
That day both crushed me and inspired me to change my life for the better. I tell people all the time that September 25, 2016, was a pivotal day and a turning point in my life.
Attending his funeral procession in Miami, surrounded by my fellow Marlins fans, was so hard for me. And a few days later, I absolutely lost it and broke down at Marlins Park when Dee Gordon hit his leadoff home run right past where I was sitting. But I couldn't have imagined being anywhere else on either of those two days.
I still miss José Days tremendously, but I'm thankful for all the moments and memories he gave us while he was with us.
May José Fernández continue to rest in peace. 🙏🏼
I loved this Playing for Something Greater piece from Aaron Cheris (@AaronHowie) for @israel_baseball.
Great perspective from @JonnyMoscot, @GlasserMitch, and @evanjkravetz.
Worth a quick read if you haven't done so already! 🇮🇱⚾️

Loved reading this @TrajektSports feature piece by @castrovince!
I had a chance to visit my friends at Trajekt at their Ontario facility three years ago and stood in against their pitching machine programmed to be Max Fried.
This is worth the read.

Quick visit home to Florida and loanDepot Park. 🐟 ⚾
My first two Marlins home games since Opening Weekend 2024, believe it or not. And my eighth MLB stadium visited this season.
Felt good to be back rocking the teal because Marlins teal is the best. 😊
Until next time! 👋🏼
Today marked my five-year workiversary at Major League Baseball. 😊⚾
Took a fun trip down memory lane with 20 of my favorite photos from the past five years.

On August 22, the @FresnoGrizzlies are hosting Dino Nugget Night! 😋
Two of my all-time favorite things in the world colliding into one totally whimsical and on-brand @MiLB promotion.
A dino nugget jersey for their team and a dino nugget plush giveaway for their fans! This is exactly why I love Minor League Baseball creativity and wackiness so much! 😍

Two Jewish baseball legends right here! 👏🏼

Last week in Philadelphia was totally surreal, and I've truly been at a loss for words these past few days.
It was an absolute honor to be with my teammates representing Minor League Baseball at Capital One All-Star Village for my first time for several long, adrenaline- and smile-filled days in a row. I had the time of my life standing by our colorful, eye-catching 136-hat MiLB Hat Wall in all its glory, sharing the stories, logos, and wackiness (and selling lots of fun hats!) that make Minor League Baseball so special.
It was an absolute thrill getting to experience two baseball bucket list items in the MLB Home Run Derby and All-Star Game on back-to-back nights, coinciding with America's 250th birthday, which left me in awe and gave me chills countless times. I witnessed an incredible show in Philadelphia, and I was beyond grateful to be one of thousands in the stands for both events.
When I embarked on this baseball journey of mine, and then when I was offered the opportunity to join the MiLB Business Operations team at Major League Baseball, I had no idea what was to come.
Last week topped everything so far, and I can't wait to write more chapters, check off more bucket list items, exude more passion and my love of baseball, and enjoy every last moment with so many great people around me. 🙏🏼 – at Philadelphia, PA
𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗱𝗮𝘆, 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆 𝟵: Three Orthodox Jews played in professional baseball games on the same day for the first time.
- Jacob Steinmetz with the Visalia Rawhide
- Zev Moore with the Trenton Thunder
- Elie Kligman with the State College Spikes
So proud of these guys! 👏🏼
🚨🇮🇱⚾
We've got our first Zev Moore (@zevmoore613) lineup graphic appearance and he's making his first pro start at second base!
He went 1-3 with his first hit, walk, and run scored in his pro debut last night. 👏🏼
