"Today, however, ash has all but died out of baseball as the trees face beetle-driven extinction. This postseason, which stretches from early October to early November and began with 12 teams and more than 300 players, may be the first in generations that does not register a single plate appearance with an ash bat."

@estherschindler This is so depressing.
@Kurtroedeger @estherschindler As I told Esther earlier I didn't even know about this. Depressing.
