OOTP Perfect Team Champions!
I’ve been playing Out of the Park Baseball since, hell, I don’t know, Tandy was making computers? Either way, I’ve been playing OOTP forever, but I’ve always played single player. And a lot of the time, I just like to…
Bull Durham Custom Cards
I did a handful of movie-based customs during my break from posting on Ashburn & Yawkey. So these are scans of the printed images (I wiped my HDD between then and now). Apologies for the quality of the scans, but…
Move Complete. Welcome to the New Site
We’re now the Kansas City Ashburn & Yawkeys. Of course, in a few years, we’ll move to Oakland, and before you know it, we’re not doing any page views, and I’m throwing chintzy tarps up over half the site. I’ve…

MLB Look Book: D-Backs Hot Take Ahead
We’re spending this off season looking at some of my favorite MLB uniforms. Maybe we will get back to non-MLB looks, but right now, we’re sticking to the bigs. I started a couple days ago with my favorite Phillies’ uniform,…
Dipping into Sabermetrics: Cape Cod League
Major League Baseball has created their own summer college leagues. Which I’m afraid will be incredibly detrimental to the established summer college leagues, three of which operate up here in New England (the Cape Cod League, Futures League & New…
MLB Look Book: Philadelphia Phillies 1989
Taking on non-MLB/MiLB team uniforms is just a crazy task. The nice, universal graphic styles aren’t there like football. So yeah. We’re going to switch it up. Let’s take a look at my favorite Major League Baseball uniforms & logo…
Baseball cards and nonsense.
