The baseball stories I want to write and you want to read. Previous work at FanGraphs, ESPN, The Athletic, Sports on Earth, The Score, Vice Sports, The New Yorker, San Francisco Magazine, and The Sporting News, among others.

I met Wendy Thurm back in the 00s when there was a very small group of women who were writing about baseball online. She is so smart and I am so glad she is writing about baseball again.
