From one life long scorekeeper to another, thanks for expressing that. I didn't name my Substack "Keeping the Book" for nothing. I'm also headed to Seattle in September and planning to catch a game there. Maybe I'll recognize you with the scorebook 😁
Gave away a bunch of scorecards during a recent baseball trip I took with 50+ substack subscribers to Molly Knight’s newsletter. The way people’s faces lit up… so awesome.
with things like real time game cast now that's on the Internet it's become a lost art. I remember when my dad showed me how to do it at old Forbes field. brought back a lot of great memories, including going through the score book during my younger playing days to see my cumulative stats on a game by game basis . Thanks for sharing

You will have to let me know when you’re here and what game you’re attending!
Will do. Still deciding at this point!
That's the best part. Just doing things for enjoyment. Thank you as always for sharing.

Enjoyment is its own reward.
It is! Thanks Sheryl
I prefer paper scoring for bowling for the same reason!
I still haven't been to a game this year. I need to do that. Take the kid and definitely keep score. This article was a nice reminder.
