Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about John Brebbia’s return to the massive leagues, Kyle Schwarber’s four-homer sport, the potential for a position-player-pitcher-assisted 5-homer sport, Heliot Ramos and dingers on extraordinarily gradual pitches, an interminable inning, whether or not the playoff race is over and, in that case, whether or not that’s an indictment of the 12-team format, and the profusion of just lately promoted pitchers probably in line for postseason begins, then (55:50) reply listener emails about season-ending accidents, accounting for participant intention in WAR, “rounding residence,” giving pitchers tall sneakers, making baseball much less random, the worst on-field feeling, pitcher aesthetics, and mid-PA pitching adjustments, plus (1:36:34) follow-ups.
Audio intro: Beatwriter, “Successfully Wild Theme”
Audio outro: Nate Emerson, “Successfully Wild Theme”
