Kevin Long of the Washington Nationals just won his second World Series championship as a hitting coach. He was previously hitting coach for the 2009 world champion Yankees as well as for the 2015 National League champion Mets.

On the latest "30 With Murti" podcast, Long joins Sweeny Murti to discuss the Nationals' run to the title. He also talks about the evolution of hitting in the "Launch Angle Era" and where it might be headed next.  

Also, you'll hear Long's insights into Nationals stars Juan Soto and Howie Kendrick, plus his thoughts on new Mets manager Carlos Beltran, a player Long has known since Beltran was a teenaged prospect in the Royals farm system.
