No Crying In Baseball

Here’s to believing that Pottymouth’s picks for LAA and MIA are men from Florida and not Florida Man. Patti avoids the potential pitfall by concentrating on California instead and exploring the ongoing Taylor vs Tyler naming conventions. We are flabbergasted that Aroldis F’n Chapman can still get a job and this Maura McGurk piece explains it better than we can. We workshop some approaches for a confrontation between Pottymouth and AF’nC such as, “I’m a schoolteacher.  How do you explain yourself to my students?” There’s a new MLBPA Executive Committee in place and it is just as pitcher-y and boyfriend-y as always. Plus bonus potential kerfuffle. Patti takes a moment to put public funding for Vegas and St. Pete ballparks into perspective. Japanese pitching legend Ayami Sato becomes the first woman to play baseball professionally in Canada. Our police blotter touches on the civil suit around Tyler Skagg’s death, Shohei’s baseball cards, and the ridiculous Golden At Bat rule that was just floated for the heck of it. Check out our bonus content on the Jonrón Derby over on Patreon.

What is No Crying In Baseball?

When Patti and her potty-mouthed friend talk baseball, you'll know this is not a baseball podcast for lightweights. This is the real deal, from real fans. Because diamonds are a strong woman's best friend, and there's no crying in baseball.
