Hey guys, I'm new. I'm not sure if I'm autistic or not but I relate really deeply with many of the characteristics and have taken the online tests that suggest that I may be neurodiverse. My main interests are baseball and movies, so if you want to talk about either of those things with me, I'd be more than happy to. I also enjoy writing.

Welcome to Wrong Planet. I'm also a huge baseball fan, Phillies to me more specific as I'm originally from Philadelphia. Not a huge history of success for us, but what are you going to do?

Are you from that area? I was Philly born and raised for the first 36 years of my life.

Don't tell me - the playground is where you spent most of your days :lol:

I'm a Brit but my father moved to Wilmington , I was given a Phillies & Eagles shirt when I was out there hence the loyalty.

Welcome to Wrong Planet!

Many years ago when I was a child, my dad took me to Wrigley Field in Chicago to watch a baseball game. I caught a fly ball. Not knowing the custom, I threw the baseball back onto the field.

There was a loud moan from the stands.

Hello there!

Welcome to these boards (feels weird to say, as I am pretty new to said boards)

I'm a pretty big baseball fan as well. Do you have a favorite player...favorite team?

I'm a big Mets and Dodgers fan, and I actually write and edit for an online Mets fan blog. I have so many favorite players haha and I also like following the minor leagues!

The Dodgers may be, from top to bottom, the most talented team in MLB. My favorite Dodger is Justin Turner. They got him for a song, and he's been great (when healthy).

If Jeff McNeill played in a different park, he'd win the batting title more than once. The Mets are...the Mets. Hopefully new ownership rights the ship!
