We’ve Added A New Blog Page
Bill Gutman and I are very happy to announce that we’ve added a new blog page feature to our Baseball History Comes Alive website. We’ll use it to “sound off” on different baseball topics that arise from time to time. And the way this year has been, there’s no shortage of things to discuss. You’ll find the link to the blog at the top of the HOME page and it’ll also appear on each individual post page.
As always, we’d love to hear your thoughts. There’s a comment form at the end of each blog. We hope to start an interesting back and forth dialogue on the topics we bring up. In the coming days look for discussions on the Negro Leagues now being considered a Major League, and a discussion of the Cleveland Indians changing their name.
To make things easier, here’s a link to the first blog entry, as Bill sounds off on the affect the Covid virus has had on the game. Feel free to chime in with your thoughts.
Trivia Contest Coming Soon!
One more thing: As we continue in our quest to add ways to improve the site, Bill and I are thinking of adding a monthly trivia contest, with a $25 Amazon gift prize awarded to the monthly winner. The contest will be open to all, but only subscribers will be eligible to win the prize. So if you’re reading this post as a visitor to the website and not already a subscriber, please consider doing so to be eligible for the monthly prize. We’re still in the “thought process” about this, but if all goes as planned, we hope to have it up-and-running soon after the first of the year. So stay tuned for more information.
And of course, Bill and I, along with our great contributors, plan to continue with our weekly articles, essays, and photo galleries. Our Baseball History Comes Alive web site now has over 1100 posts, all fully categorized.
And what better way to usher in a new feature than with a photo of Babe Ruth. I feel pretty confident the great Bambino would approve of our humble efforts to keep both his legacy alive along with the great history of the game as well.
Anyway, we invite you to participate in our new blog page and we look forward to viewing your comments.
Gary and Bill
