  • Special Guest: Zak Ford
    May 4 2025

    Welcome to the Season 3 season finale!

    Sometimes Facebook uses it's forces for good. A friend posted about a book event with Zak Ford, who recently published a book on getting called up to the Major Leagues. Fittingly titled, "Called Up"

    Full of stories about MLB lifers, players who stopped for a cup of coffee in the bigs, and some who may have only been called up a few times without impact. We talk all things divided loyalty in baseball, favorite moments, and harmless pranks.

    Plus, Malice Domestic roundup, my sadness at the Casas injury, and of course publishing news!
