Genuinely the sense of community and excitement here was incredible. T4TBall is quickly becoming a major nexus of transfem culture and I am SO here for it.

"YOU'RE NEVER GONNA GET A NEW MARIO BASEBALL"

Jane Remover has removed themself from M3F Festival’s 2027 lineup in protest of Temper City’s inclusion: “get that IDF band off of the lineup or i’m not playing”

Easy schedule

Julio Rodriguez wants to be the best player he can be for the Mariners: “I knew I was a rookie. I got it. But it’s one thing hearing people say it to you, and it’s a whole other thing to believe it. Like really believe it. It didn’t feel early to me. I’d been waiting my whole life for this chance. Since I was hitting the tennis balls my dad saved up money for back in the Dominican. Since I was playing with Hot Wheels on the floor. Since I was pretending to be Ichiro in Loma de Cabrera. It wasn’t early to me. It was right on time. And I wanted to deliver for the people of Seattle. I wanted to show them who I could be. I went home that night and watched back my at-bats. I kept looking at the clock beside my bed. It was 1 a.m., then 2, then 3. And I was just watching different swings of mine, even good ones from other games, just looking for anything to help me out. I probably watched 500 swings that night before I passed out. I got to the park the next day and I found my hitting coach and I was just like, ‘What are we going to do? I know I can do this…. What am I missing?’ We chatted for a bit. Some technical stuff, some mindset stuff. But what it really came down to was this: Trust. I’d believed in myself my whole life. My family instilled that in me. And I’d always had confidence that the work I put in would pay off. But belief and confidence are different from trust. To me, trust is a whole other thing. And it’s a word that has meant so much to me in my time in Seattle. I want to tell you why. I know I’m not the first Dominican player to have made it to the big leagues like I did. There have been plenty before me, and there will be plenty after me. But you know what we all have in common? At some point, as young men, we just had to jump — we had to trust in those around us. Our parents, brothers and sisters, cousins, friends, friends of friends. Anyone. We had to hope that they had our best interests at heart. Because it takes a village to make a ballplayer in the Dominican. I saw kids like me, kids with real talent, get lost along the way because they didn’t have the right people around them. But I was lucky. I had my dad. He was a ballplayer back in the day, and I think that’s where my passion for the game comes from. And my mom made sure I treated everybody well and played the right way. They helped me see people for who they really are. And when I was considering my options for coming to America, I wanted to be around good people. The more time I spent talking with the Mariners, the more I started to feel something really special growing. In one of our conversations, they said something that really stuck with me: ‘We don’t want you to be anything other than the guy that you say you’re going to be.’ They looked at me, a 16-year-old kid, and put their faith in who I thought I could be. That’s trust. You get me?? That’s trust.” playerstribu.ne/JRod @JRODshow44 | @Mariners

props to Gooseworx I think it takes a lot of guts as a trans woman to make a character that’s an amalgamation of your worst thoughts and tendencies pre transition only to have the internet pretty unanimously agree that guy needs to be killed with hammers

this is so endearing to me. every queer club i have ever been to has at least 5 white trans women in face masks dancing just like this

You know…. If those baseball players ALWAYS put Bible verses on their hats, nobody would blink an eye. Them only doing it during Pride Night is performative as fuck. Lmao. Do it for all 162 games if you REALLY believe in your religion.

how can a society be so cartoonishly evil man
