The One Where We Burn Down the House

On the two year anniversary of Tipping Pitches, Alex and Bobby discuss how baseball has changed since they started this podcast and how it has remained the same. Then, they bring on two long-awaited guests in Phoebe Walsh and Gabriella Bower to discuss the ways in which the sport could foster a more inclusive and equitable environment, including the creation of more spaces for non-men and a more balanced financial system. Finally, this week’s Three Up, Three Down features ruminations on the hit tool and Jeff McNeil’s puppy adoption.
