This summer, I hiked back into the Linville Gorge in the North Carolina mountains, one of my favorite spots in the world, for the first time since Hurricane Helene. Wrote about my quest to see if "my rock" had moved, for @CharlotteMag. https://t.co/pD6wzNAGby

If you’re wondering how to take part in the story @hochman wrote in today’s paper, here is @Canscanministry with the details on where cards can be found at Busch …
We dropped off 325 Stadium Rips at Busch Stadium today! Check us out in the Authentics Store in Ballpark Village and in centerfield. 100% of all wholesale proceeds goes towards our many different community programs. @ryanfagan @Cardinals #thehobby @hochman

I cannot even begin to tell you how much I love this piece from @hochman, who did an incredible job capturing how — and why — Greg Poole (@Canscanministry) uses baseball cards to positively impact his community every single day.
This is free to read online. This STL fan is 1 of the most-amazing people I've ever met. Abused as a boy, he tried to take his own life. He lived & realized: he's here to help others. Now 41, he's raised $700K w/ his cards & gave it ALL to those in need. https://t.co/t6CkJJXp10

I got to know Marc a little bit when he was the manager of the Frontier League team I covered in 2003, the River City Rascals. I was still figuring out how to be a baseball writer but he was great to me. Loved hearing him talk about his game. Learned so much. RIP, Booter
Crushed to learn of Marc Hill's passing, as he was consistently one of the most fun big league players and great guys I've ever been around. "The Booter" was loved by his teammates, and was an example of our 1983 @WhiteSox team's phenomenal chemistry.

Love this piece from Sooz! Very cool to see one of the hobby's good people lift up others doing good work. I've seen first-hand how tirelessly Greg Poole (@Canscanministry) works to help people in his community meet their basic needs. Really an inspiration.
How a card shop became a much-needed resource for the community. There are good people in this community and @Canscanministry is high among them with the work he does in his shop. https://t.co/uZt9tdahPH

Thanks to all who continue support and purchase items from us. Because of products like our Stadium Rips at Busch Stadium we have been able to expand our meal delivery service and additional “customers”. @Cardinals @ryanfagan #thehobby

In the first 3 years of our Resource Center we served roughly 600 classrooms. We are now on pace to pass that number is 6 months this year. Whether you are a part of the education community, #clearthelist, #thehobby, or anyone in between - We can use your help! @ryanfagan

Just saw the Ryne Sandberg news. So sad. Have to share my favorite Sandberg story, about this picture I took of him with Bill Murray in the hallway just outside the clubhouse shortly after the Cubs broke their World Series curse with a G7 win in Cleveland.

At the Ol’ HQ tonight assembling some Stadium Rips packs. While every card may not be a banger, we try to put in the coolest cards possible into each pack. 100% of what we receive for these packs pays for programs in our community like free meals for seniors, beds for foster
