Pennant Chases, Kids, and Women in Baseball (8/29/18) – Podcast

Audio

Coach and Tucker discuss the pennant chases for the stretch run of the MLB Season. The Nationals are a franchise in need of group therapy, where the Dodgers are falling off thanks to a banged up bullpen. Coming on strong, who are these Tampa Bay Rays?? Here come the terrifying Cardinals, because Matheny getting fired is the greatest addition (He may have cost them a championship or two).  There’s a real team of ballplayers on the 2018 Oakland Athletics, most importantly, they could just overtake the AL West. Coming into home, there are big problems with Acuna getting hit, while Coach remembers Drysdale vs. Mathews in the 60s.
