The Backyard Base Path (part 1)

If some of y’all missed last week’s show, it showed me and Jacob working outside on baseball skills. Matteo’s segment was about diet and nutrition and how to live on 850 calories a day, and he lost another pound at his weigh-in. There was also a nice Veteran’s Day segment about Maya’s brother, who’s a … Continue reading The Backyard Base Path (part 1) →

My 28th Birthday (last part)

I thought that my birthday was over on Sunday (which was the 8th), and that there wouldn’t have any celebrations on the next day like I had for the past couple years when the guys took me out the 9th. Turns out I was wrong: when I got to the Sharpmans, Dr. Peterson told me … Continue reading My 28th Birthday (last part) →

My 28th Birthday (part 1)

Keaton got what he wanted this year: I didn’t go around telling everyone that it was gonna be my birthday. That’s not because I agree with him that it’s gayass to tell people when your birthday is…it’s that I don’t see enough people to tell them that November 8th is coming up and that I’m … Continue reading My 28th Birthday (part 1) →

November Rent

Although most things are going pretty well for Hashtag Baseball Boy here, I’ve got one very big problem: the rent. Y’all know that in September someone – I still don’t know who – paid it for me. That meant that I had money left over from September to help pay for October’s rent. This month … Continue reading November Rent →

Matteo’s Diet: Weeks 1 & 2

With all the excitement over the Dodgers, I didn’t get to write anything about the aftermath of last week’s episode of At Home with Maya…and now there’s been another show on, too. Last week’s show had the footage of me and Jacob playing Marco Polo in the pool, so that meant that I appeared with … Continue reading Matteo’s Diet: Weeks 1 & 2 →

Halloween 2020

Joyce decided to do Halloween different this year. After that amazing haunted house she made for me two years ago, and after it just being the two of us last year, she decided to make it into a little party…with costumes, games…plus masks and social distancing…and only three guests: me, Keaton and Mrs. LaSalle, who … Continue reading Halloween 2020 →

World Series Game 6

They did it. The Dodgers won the World Series. It took 3 trips in 4 years, but they finally did it. And, for me, it’s the first time that a major league team I’ve been behind has won the World Series. I remember the years when the Smokies almost made their way to a championship … Continue reading World Series Game 6 →

World Series Game 5

That was more like it. The game was exciting but not too nerve racking…except when we got to the last couple innings and I was terrified – along with the rest of Los Angeles – that Roberts was gonna send Jansen in. I read on the internet – so it probably isn’t true – that … Continue reading World Series Game 5 →

World Series Games 3 & 4

Ok…so before I get to the thing everyone writing about the World Series wants to write about, let me just say a few words about Game 3. We. Won. We. Should. Have. We just played better baseball and the score reflected that. It was a communal effort – even Barnes, who’s primarily a defensive asset, … Continue reading World Series Games 3 & 4 →

Matteo’s Weight Loss Program Goes on TV

So y’all may be wondering what’s been happening to Hashtag Baseball Boy while I’ve been busy writing about the World Series. Last Wednesday, the same night as that gosh awful game 2 that the Dodgers lost, the next episode of At Home with Maya with me in it aired. That was the episode where they … Continue reading Matteo’s Weight Loss Program Goes on TV →
