Leading Off



We’re on a tight “pitch clock” on this episode. Next, we’re going to invoke ghost podcasters.

Around the Bases







First Base: Rules in Action



We have complained about some of the new MLB rules for 2023, but now we are starting to see the rules play out in actual baseball games (rather than in theory). So… how good/bad are these rule changes?



Put yourself on the clock and get shiftfaced with us, as we see where the rubber meets the rules.



Second Base: World Baseball Classic



The WBC is back, and we are fans of the tournament.



Of particular interest, we’re looking forward to seeing what the Czech Republic (Czechia) has to offer. Also, team USA might not be The Dream Team, but they are an exciting group of players.



The Dominican Republic also looks completely stacked. Do yourself a favor and watch some WBC games this winter/spring.



Third Base: Spring Training So Far



We’ve seen so little… so what can we say about what we have not yet seen?



Home Plate: Adieu Adieu



With Dempsey’s closing at the ballpark, what should the Orioles do with that space? We have one immediate thought for the new use for this space.
