On April 1, 1989, This Week In Baseball aired the segment below announcing that Major League Baseball has legalized aluminum bats for one season. I have to say, they did a convincing job of it, and I would be curious to find out how many fans fell for this fabricated story.
I haven’t done the research to determine just how far back the tradition of baseball teams wearing green on St. Patrick’s Day truly goes, but some believe that it may go back quite a ways. The 1899 Philadelphia Phillies introduced their new, green-trimmed uniforms on March 17th, a move that garnered headlines. Considering the Phillies wore these uniforms for the rest of the season, there remains some debate as to whether this could truly be considered a nod to St. Patrick’s Day. The modern tradition of wearing green on this day wouldn’t emerge until 1978, beginning with the Cincinnati Reds.
Happy New Year, everyone! This year is going to be a good one, and I’m pretty excited for it.
I hope that everyone is enjoying a warm and cozy holiday season. I wish you all the very best as we head into the final days of 2022 and look forward to an exciting new year!
I hope everyone has a relaxing Labor Day! If you are traveling, please travel safe in the midst of the chaos.
To everyone in the United States, Happy Independence Day! Please stay safe, and I hope you are able to relax a bit today.
