Here is my most recent essay: “For the Love of Donnie Baseball”
I had always wanted to write a piece about my favorite Yankee Don Mattingly to figure out what role he played in my childhood. I think I figured out some things out, but ultimately this essay evolved into a contemplation of sports fandom in general—raising big questions about why we are drawn to losing teams and how winning only brings fleeting satisfaction. Sports! Sports! Sports!
