A Place for Baseball (fanaticus.social)

When reddit goes dark this month and forever after, I'll be looking for a new home on the internet to discuss my favorite pastime, baseball.

I am not here to convince you that lemmy is the next best thing or that it's going to replace reddit but it's the best we have now. If people of like minds or similar interests band together, we can create our own place and ensure that place doesn't disappear or decay because it's controlled by companies or individuals who don't have the community's best interests in mind.

To that end, I've created this lemmy instance, separate from the main lemmy.ml instance, in order to create a space for sports fans to discuss and share news about their favorite sports, teams, players, etc.

I think it's important for durability's sake that there is no mass migration from reddit to a single lemmy instance. That defeats the most powerful part of lemmy: the federation.

If a community can own and run it's own servers, it can never be beholden to anyone.

The Rangers avoid the sweep. Roki looked ok today. But DeGrom was unflappable.

I’m bummed and more than a little drunk

Blue jays fought hard and edged out the Dodgers today 4-3.

Shohei didn’t have his best stuff but held them to one run until the pen let up 3. He has been on base in 42 straight games now. Amazing. Our pen has been amazing up until today, blue jays bullpen held it down.

Great game sucks to lose but a great game to watch.

The boys come home to face the Rangers this weekend
