Jim’s Journal, July 5th, 2024
More media are starting to pick up the good news for Batesville native, right-handed pitcher Bryan Hoeing. MLB.com was first to report that Hoeing was to be taken off the 15-day injured list today. Those stories have been confirmed, where they say Hoeing will be starting tonight for Miami against the White Sox. CBS Sports now notes Hoeing’s been used as a starter quite a bit in the past, but this year so far had only been a reliever, except for a single-inning start during his rehab assignment in Jacksonville. In the most recent rehab work to get over his left hamstring injury, Bryan threw 49 pitches over a couple innings. It isn’t yet clear whether tonight will be a one-time deal, or if Hoeing might soon make more starts for the Marlins.

Evansville Retailer to Close After 60 Years in Business
Paul’s Menswear launched a retirement sale last month, with plans to close doors after over 60 years on the west side of Evansville. While I never personally purchased a suit from Paul’s Menswear, I can certainly appreciate the time that goes into getting a suit or pants tailored. I purchased my first suit in December 2019 when I started going on job interviews after college. Buying my first suit around that time was, to me, a symbol of accomplishment, and it was a great experience. I would imagine many in the Evansville area have similar stories about shopping at Paul’s Menswear.
