And 162 games later, the 2019 baseball season’s over. What happened? How’d your team do? How’d my team do? Who’s going to win the World Series? Let’s talk a bit about the 2019 baseball season.
I don’t watch as much baseball as I’d like. But like any good Yankees fan, I check the box scores from all 162 games. The Yanks were playing the White Sox the other night, and I noticed “M. Banuelos” under the list of Chicago pitchers. And like any good Yankees fan, I know who Manny Bañuelos is.
That couldn’t be Manny, could it? Is he still playing?
It was, and he is. Here’s a common sort of baseball story.

Today is opening day for the 2019 baseball season. We’re finally done with all that ‘pace of play‘ nonsense! I’m going to write a bit about a question I sometimes get: Drabek? Have I heard that name before? Are you related to that baseball player?
Why, yes! Or, at least, kinda. We’re distant cousins. Both our families are from Texas, and specifically the Houston area. But we don’t know each other. My family holds a reunion each year, and as far as I know, Doug Drabek doesn’t attend. Neither do I, for that matter.
