🚨🚨 GOING YARD WITH BACKYARD BASEBALL 🚨🚨

We’re opening the Clubhouse again next week for our latest Club Sportico members hang in New York City. On Thursday, June 11, in our ground floor studio on 5th Avenue in Midtown, we’re partnering with Substack and Backyard Sports to provide a sneak peek at the upcoming launch of the newest version of Backyard Baseball.

Yes, that means Pablo Sanchez and Achmed Khan are back. As are MLB legends from the original games, plus new stars making their debut in the backyard.

There will be:

  • A conversation with Lindsay Barnett, CEO of Backyard Baseball maker Playground Productions ⚾

  • An opportunity to play the game on computers around the studio 🎮

  • Pizza from one of New York’s best slice joints 🍕

  • Trivia (with some giveaways) ⁉️

  • More surprises! 😲

The event is free for paid Club Sportico subscribers and space is limited. Details below! And if you’re not a paying member of Club Sportico, now’s a great time to join us!
