Show Notes

Finish Your Breakfast: 4.1.2026 (April Fools') - Andrew McCutchen was not in the Rangers’ lineup last night, but his hot start is worth noting. McCutchen is batting 455/455/909 to start the season. And to think, some teams thought he was washed (Pirates). No matter how his book ends, I am happy Cutch is having this chapter.

In a 3-2 loss to the Phillies, seven of the Nationals’ eight total hits came from American-born Black players (Lile, Nuñez, Wood, and Abrams). That stat has me wondering: What team has had the most hits by American-born Black players in the past few years? That’s worth looking up. Cam Smith, Drake Baldwin, Victor Scott II, and Stanton all made the highlights. Not highlighted: Justin Crawford got a hit and scored a run. Rate my hat, it is a good one. See you tomorrow.
