I got tired of googling each Australian baseball player every day so I did something This tracks every Australian in pro ball, college and MLB. Still a work in progress but you may enjoy. Did this for the love of it, so a RT is appreciated www. aussiebaseballtracker.com

Incredible baseball history! Can X help me verify? This is Tyler Wilson. He’s played in the Little League, Intermediate League, Junior League and just qualified for the Senior League World Series. I think he’s first person ever to play in all four @LittleLeague events.

I know Jays suck right now, but I built this anyway: jays.baby It's a daily stats panel that uses Fangraphs, MLB Stats and Savant data to show a ton of interesting information. I'm constantly adding new things too. I made this for the people, so RTs appreciated.

Meet the latest Australian baseball player to turn pro: Patrick Crotty. The 17-year-old out of Brisbane signed with the Phillies today. His story is nothing short of resilient, and he credits it all to his mum who raised him and his three brothers after his dad passed away when Patrick was one. The story: baseball.com.au/news/crottyp…
