A salute to Daniel Bard’s baseball career and his forthright battle with anxiety

Posted May 15, 2023
Daniel Bard is a pitcher, and a man, worth celebrating. Fourteen years ago, the Rockies’ right-hander made his major-league debut at age 23. Bard entered his first game for the Red Sox against the Angels. The first major-league batter Bard faced was Erick Aybar. Now, 366 games, 415 1/3 innings and 65 saves later, Bard is still trying to figure it all out. (Denver Post)
