It was a Game Night to remember. Beau Blyth’s Samurai Gunn projected nicely outdoors and there were plenty on hand to give it a try. We also featured Kendama professionals who taught us more. Also we had game night cookies from Okashiiya! Exciting times, come to the next.
Huge money for a 25 year old who hasn’t thrown in MLB. It’s allegedly the 5th highest contract for a pitcher. ( ESPN)
