So where are your eyes? Your family aligns

I will remember you this way

On the anniversary of the anniversary

Hello and welcome to episode 1877 of Effectively Wild, a baseball

podcast from Fan Graphs presented by Patreon supporters. I am Ben Lindbergh of the

Ringer and joined on the road by Meg Rallye who is in LA for All Star Week. Hello,

Nick of Fan Graphs. Hello, it is me Meg of Fan Graphs. Yes, live from LA. It's Saturday

night. Wait, no, Sunday morning. Wait, no, that's not right. He's our fellow fan. How are you?

It's appropriate that we have massacred and mingled this intro because this is the first of our

10th anniversary episodes and we still haven't quite caught in a hang of this apparently,

you are on the road. I am not on the road, but we will talk to you later this week about all the

All Star Week festivities that you are witnessing in person, but we're going to do a few

anniversary themed episodes this week because 10 years and this episode going up on July

18th, episode one went up at baseball perspective on July 18th, 2012. So it has actually been a full

10 years of effectively wild, which is wild. I can't believe that it has gone on this long and

that people are still listening and supporting and enjoying for the most part of it seems.

It has been great. We've gone through a lot of life changes in that time. A lot of our

listeners have too, but personally, I got engaged, I got married, I had a daughter, I gained

a lot of love to ones, I lost loved ones, I changed jobs a few times throughout all of that

effectively wild has been the constant and it's been a big part of my life and a part

that I cherish and I'm glad that it has become what it has become and that you have been a big

part of it too. So it's been quite a right.
