Kyle Seager at Mariners FanFestBy Josh:

I can’t believe it has been eight years since I posted my very first article on the site. So much has happened in that time. I’ve had two daughters, earned both a Bachelors degree and a Masters degree, moved from Salem, OR to Kelso, WA, worked a couple different jobs, and gone on a journey I never expected. 

I never expected 9 Inning Know It All to grow as big as it has. Heck I never even expected it to still be going this many years after I started it. I started off by writing articles about the Salem Keizer Volcanoes and the Northwest League. Slowly the topics I wrote about began to become more diverse in the baseball world. I started doing interviews and photographs and that is when things changed.

IJosh Randolph with the World Series Trophy love where 9 Inning Know It All has taken me and I’m excited for all the future possibilities. However, nothing that I have accomplished would have happened without the support of my wife, the teams, leagues, schools and organizations that have welcomed me in, and of course the fans who have followed the web site, Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram and even the Youtube channel.

A huge thank you to my Patreon Supporters who support 9 Inning Know It All every month and a huge thank you to those who have bought photos, gifted money, gift cards and the best elk hamburger meat I’ve ever had. On a side note my wife now wants me to get my hunting license and get an elk just so we can have more amazing elk meat.

I do want to list out a few of those that have been a part of the growth of the site or have invited us in and allowed 9 Inning Know It All to grow.

9 Inning Know It All Crew – After I tricked these guys into writing an article they were hooked and have been a huge reason why we have so many fans and have had so many great experiences.

Bringing you baseball from the Little Leagues to the Major Leagues. If it's baseball it's good enough for us.
