Skillfully Unique Episode 2214: Avoiding Throwing Inside Fastballs

EWFI



Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley chat about Carlos Estévez’s impressive prediction, how to communicate the score from the losing team’s perspective, and the experience of being hit in the head by a hot dog. They then delve into the topic of getting hit by a baseball, discussing the frequency of these incidents, the potential dangers, and whether MLB should take measures to prevent them, as Whit Merrifield suggests. Later on, they brainstorm the first-inning disadvantage for visiting teams and respond to listener emails covering a range of baseball-related topics.
