No Crying In Baseball

Like a fine single malt scotch, this super-sized episode is packed with sophisticated flavors. We honor the passing of Willie Mays by sharing his legacy through words and not numbers. We look at the first steps that are the Rickwood Field game with the first all-Black umpire team, through the eyes of Masyn Winn, one of the few Black players on the game’s roster, and how far we have to go. In our boyfriend segment we note numerous names on the IL, gigantic hits, and a tiny, adorable (cheers!) first pitch. We may have kicked off our Dylan Crews Watch. Our Police Blotter features the first game won on a pitch clock violation walk off. And Pottymouth leads a deep dive into the cultural significance of Grimace.

We say, “Boom! F*&k! Boom! F*&k!,” “WebMD doesn’t have Craig Counsell saying ‘walk it off!’,” and “Willie Mays would have totally been a boyfriend.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

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.
