I drove 17,000 miles in 95 days to see a game at all 30 MLB Parks.

I'm at a loss for words. @MarcSantia4NY took the time to talk to me about how baseball saved my life. It was featured on @NBCNewYork. If you have a minute, I would sincerely appreciate it if you would check it out. I want to help you all see #30Stadiums. 4.nbcny.com/MCJhhb1
I attended the first game at Comerica Park this season. I attended the final game at Comerica Park this season.
The Tigers last won the World Series in 1984. I was one. They spent the majority of my childhood and young adulthood as the WORST team in baseball.
I’ve been lucky to have an innumerable amount of non-baseball related happy moments since then, but this truly miraculous run with a team of babies fills me with a joy and optimism I haven’t felt in a long time.
I still can’t believe I’m here. In Detroit. In October. I am indescribably happy. Regardless of what happens next, this year has been a success beyond my wildest imagination.
I love this team.
I love this city.
I love baseball.
I love all of you.
Let’s go Tigers.
I thought I’d been to my last live ballgame in ‘24.
.2% Not 2%
ZERO POINT TWO PERCENT.
Those were the Tigers odds of making the playoffs on August 11th.
Yet I’m watching the Tigers in October for the first time in a decade.
I have no words. Just joy.

I love Detroit.
This is what I do during every Tigers game. I power walk by the seaport like a MANIAC while listening to the game because my heart can’t take the stress of watching it. This team is either going to give me a heart attack or keep me alive for 50 more years. I LOVE BASEBALL!
What did I tell you on Opening Day? It’s been a rough few years for me personally. It’s been a rough decade for the Tigers. If you’re not a baseball fan, I get it. But there is something magical happening in Detroit right now. And I’ve never been happier. Baseball is special.

I very much feel your pain, apathy, anger, bewilderment, sadness, frustration, all of the nonsense. But remember: in 2003 the Tigers lost 119 games, and three years later we were in the World Series. Keep hope alive.
It’s taken a decade for me to force @zack_hample to sit and enjoy ONE game without the pressure of snagging a single ball. With us is his amazing videographer Rachel and another ball hawking lunatic @grbnyc123 (both of whom I adore). I love baseball. I love baseball people.
San Francisco. After years of complaining about your lack of mini helmet ice cream, you DELIVERED with waffle glove on top. It’s my last road trip of the season. Thank you to everyone who joined me for a game. I’m grateful to have met so many new amazing fans across the country.
For the first time in my life, I didn’t watch a single pitch while inside a ballpark. I spent all nine innings walking around the Coliseum. I commiserated with fans, ushers, vendors, and security guards.
Mixed emotions at tonight’s game. I met @CocoFingers & Cristina in 2013 on my first 30 stadium tour. They opened my eyes to THE BEST FANS IN BASEBALL. But they are somehow better humans. John Fisher. Please. Sell the team. You’ll make so much money! And make so many people happy.
This Tigers team is so exciting that I switched coasts to see them. It doesn’t hurt that San Diego is a literal paradise. I’m ecstatic that the Padres are playing so well and PACKING this ballpark every game. Someone who played in the ‘84 World Series needs to win in ‘24 please.
When Tarik Skubal is pitching there isn’t time for mini helmet ice cream. @zack_hample & Rachel are here! It’s the 40th anniversary of the ‘84 Tigers. Seeing Whittaker/Trammell chopping it up melts my heart. Seeing Kerry Carpenter GEEKING out over Chet Lemon…I love this team.
I haven’t been this excited about a Tigers team in a decade. They may have lost tonight, but Kerry Carpenter’s 8th inning 3-run BOMB brought the ballpark to its feet. And Jake Rogers tying it in the 9th sent this crowd into the stratosphere. 2025 and beyond is going to be FUN.
