Royals Opening Day

BASEBALL IS BACK!

I’m back for my second year as an LCC (Live Content Creator) for MLB, and feeling incredibly lucky that despite all of the current circumstances I’m not only able to cover baseball, but do so from the field. I’m getting tested at least bi-weekly throughout the season and will be crossing my fingers six feet away from the nearest human being, hoping that the players, coaches, and supporting casts at each ballpark can all stay healthy.

The Royals hosted the Chicago White Sox this past weekend, debuting new skipper Mike Matheny and a few new faces. Have I said yet how lucky I feel to be doing this?

50 Games in 50 Photos

This baseball season I joined the MLB Advanced Media team to cover all 81 home games for the Kansas City Royals and their opponents. As an LCC (live content creator) I transmit images in real-time during games to the two teams for social media useage. It's been so much fun – albeit a little exhausting – and I'm thankful to have had the opportunity to work alongside some of the best photographers in the business, meet new people and learn new things, while making images of a game I love.

The Royals just finished up their 50th game at Kauffman Stadium this season, so I figured now was as good a time as any to finally get a blog post up with some of my favorite photos from the year so far.

Presenting my favorite 50 photos from the first 50 home games in Kansas City:
