    Tom Seaver's scouting report while he was pitching for @USC_Baseball in 1965: "Plenty of desire to pitch and wants to beat you." No truer words were ever spoken about the future @baseballhall of Fame pitcher. Who was that scout? #Dodgers coach Tommy Lasorda.

    New @SABRbioproject: Tim Lincecum, one of just 3 pitchers in @MLB history with multiple Cy Young Awards, no-hitters and World Series rings. The Freak was a #ForeverGiant fan favorite with @SFGiants. By Giselle Stancic: sabr.org/bioproj/person… #SABR

    We're saddened to learn Jim Bouton, 80, has died. The former @Yankees All-Star pitcher revolutionized baseball journalism and literature as the author of "Ball Four" — named one of @nypl's best books of the 20th century. #SABR bio: sabr.org/bioproj/person…

    RIP Willie Mays, 93, the best all-around player in baseball history and forever the "Say Hey Kid." His quarter-century of excellence with the Birmingham Black Barons, @SFGiants & @Mets inspired generations of fans. Read @SABRbioproject: sabr.org/bioproj/person… #SABR

    RIP Ryne Sandberg, 65, one of the most popular players in @Cubs history. He set a major-league record for home runs by a 2B, won 1984 NL MVP honors, and captured 9 Gold Gloves. In Memoriam: sabr.org/latest/in-memo… #SABR

    Such a cruel way for Rich Hill to lose a perfect game! First time in @MLB history a PG bid has ever ended in 9th inning on an error.
