Harmon Killebrew statue outside Target Field (Minneapolis, Minnesota – August 2022)
Born on this day 87 years ago. He died about 12 years ago, and this statue was erected outside Target Field less than a year before.

Looks like the last professional team that I had any interest in no longer wants me to be interested…
Silicon Graphics Computer Systems and Rickey Henderson
Saw this clip a while ago and figured I should do a screenshot of it and not just because Rickey Henderson was my favorite baseball player ever. I worked at Silicon Graphics (when they were better known as SGI) in the late 1990s. The video was probably from the early ’90s, as the SGI logo changed in the meantime.

1975 Topps Baseball Cards sorted by color
My team didn’t make it. Nor did I really even follow major league baseball this year. I watched two A’s games during the entire season–one on TV and one in person. They won both in dramatic fashion. I went to one other game (in Minnesota) to watch the Giants lose so basically I went 3-0 this year.
The above photo is not mine. I saw it on Twitter a while back and thought it was lovely. The ’75 set is my favorite.
