Baseball Neighborhood Tavi

On this episode, Tavi talks with friend of the show and writer Sydney Bergman, AKA KD Casey, writer of Unwritten Rules.  They chat Nationals, the Max Scherzer and Trae Turner trade, as well as what the offseason looks like for the team from Washington, D.C.

In the second half of the show, they talk romance!  Baseball Drama!  Food!  And what happens when catchers fall in love!

You can hear more from Sydney on baseball on the Resting Pitchface Podcast or on Twitter.

This week, we talk with Elliot, an artist and world traveler who has fallen deeply in love with baseball, albeit as a Giants fan (hey, nobody's perfect!)  Together, we discuss the teams past and present and look forward to the bright future of the rivalry in years to come.  Check out their excellent illustrations and baseball art at BallparkNotes.  And as mentioned in the show, you should also check out inspiring friends Lewis and Andy, as well as an excellent comic about Clayton Kershaw by Andy featured here.

Before we talk to other teams, it's time to try to put our own house in order.  It's time to talk about Trevor Bauer.  

This podcast does contain minimal description of violence against women.  It's not explicit in detail, but might be upsetting for some listeners.  Discretion is advised.

On this episode, we're talking Pittsburgh Pirates with Graves (@KG_55VFTG).  We talk about bad players, good players, and how recently frustrated Pirates fans have a lot to look forward to in the next few years.  We talk about the total leadership overhaul and finding hope for the future in the minor leagues.  We also talk about the incredible Roberto Clemente and what it means to have such a great man as part of the franchise.  In the history section, we learn how the Pirates notched a lot of MLB firsts, including the infamous Dock Ellis LSD no-no, as well as Ellis's lasting positive impact on the sport as a whole.

East Coast meets West Coast in this week's episode when I talk with Kara Kaufman, Yankees superfan and host of the KK Zone.  We talk about what it's like to be the Big Bads of our respective leagues and who has taken over the role of villain for all of baseball, all that plus some Yankees history and MLB's celebration of its inaugural Lou Gehrig Day.

It happens for any team that wins a championship: an influx of new fans, aka "bandwagoners."  For this episode, I talk to a brand new Dodger fan about why she chose to start paying attention now and why new fans like her are essential to growing our collective Baseball Neighborhood.
