    Episode 423: The Postseason- Running Out of Nails to Bite

    It's getting tense in the postseason with the road to the World Series being littered with fallen teams, hopes, dreams, fingernails, and sanity. The Yankees have blessedly joined the fallen today (Oct 8), but the Phillies, Dodgers, Cubs, Brewers, Mariners, Tigers, and Blue Jays remain, each with Asian and Asian American players to root for. We recap the Wild Card Series and the Divisional Series so far, setting up next week's League Championship Series. Two teams in the NL and two in the AL to fight for their shot at baseball glory. Yamamoto had been lights out, Suzuki rediscovered his power swing, Woo is out for the ALDS, Sasaki is crushing in relief, and Ohtani started hot, but has since looked lost at the plate. Lots to still be determined. And it's going to be explosive, tense, and a hell of a lot of fun.

    Episode 422- Welcome to the Postseason

    We wrap up the regular season and then talk postseason. The Wildcard series is underway and the Division series is taking shape. We started with HS Kim, Volpe, Yoshida, Suzuki, Ohtani, Darvish, Wong, Imanaga, Yamamoto, Sasaki, Kwan, and Edman. Lots of amazing feats of Asian baseball greatness is on display already, and there is more to come. Stay tuned!

    Episode 421: Crawling to the Finish Line

    We soldier on without our dear leader, Kim, much like some of our players who are soldiering on without full use of their muscles and ligaments as they deal with nagging injuries and slumps. But we keep going, even in the face of overt White Christian Nationalism invading our sacred stadiums. The Yankees honor a man who hated them to his core, several of our guys are banged up with injuries, and our pitchers aren't getting enough run support. The mystery of Volpe's horrible season might be explained by a nagging injury, much like Kwan's steady decline in the second half. But Suzuki and Senga are still mysteries. Both had historic starts to their seasons only to completely disappear in the second half. Yamamoto continues to dominate while getting no run support, and Ohtani is still...checks notes...Ohtani. Who will make it to the postseason? We can't wait to find out. Just two weeks of regular season play to go.

    Episode 420: Screaming and Streaming

    WHERE TO BEGIN!! These last two weeks have given us plenty of reasons to scream, positively and negatively...let's get into it. Sonny throws out the first pitch, MLB launches a new Korean-exclusive channel with MC Johnny Suh of NCT17, and a new documentary about MLB's relationship with Japan called DIAMOND DIPLOMACY will be available soon! In position player news, CC Sabathia has words for Anthony Volpe's haters, IKF returns to the Blue Jays and Kim Ha Seong is already thriving at his new home in Atlanta, Bo Bichette is still on an offensive tear, and Lee Jung Hoo's teammates finally give him a taste of his own walk off celebration. Pitching was a wild ride: Jonah Tong debuts in a huge way, Yoshinobu Yamamoto gets one out away from a no hitter...and then the Dodgers lose the whole game, Yu Darvish lets Fernando Tatis Jr. know how he feels, Bryan Woo does not make it through the 6th for the first time all year, and Kodai Senga is sent down to triple A. And lastly, in Ohtani talk - his casual 48 home runs put him in striking distance of another record, he gets his first W as a Dodger, and the comment section thirsts...for him to hit them in the nuts????

    Episode 419: The Stars Are Out

    It's another week of Asians in Baseball, and is it just us, or is it bright in here with all these STARS?! First, Team Taiwan and Lin Chin-Tse win the Little League World Series! Saweetie, V, and Sonny throw out the first pitch (in separate games, but wouldn't that be sick if it was the same one!) And a very special listener recap from Brian Nguyen on his time at Ichiro's number retirement. Then, in position players: Anthony Volpe is still trying to get out of his slump, we've got hit streaks on hit streaks, Jahmai Jones emerges as a candidate for Team Korea, Mookie is impressed by the Grandson of the Wind, and Steven Kwan is the first player featured in MLB's new Youtube series No Easy Outs. In pitching, Mets #4 prospect Jonah Tong is called up to The Show, Shinnosuke Ogasawara gets the "diminutive Asian" treatment (he's 5' 11" and 205 lbs btw), Naomi argues a strong case for Bryan Woo winning the Cy Young, Yu Darvish holds a masterclass on the Art of Pitching, and Riley O'Brien is soaring. Finally, Ohtani continues to prove his status as the GOAT: going on an offensive tear vs. the Angels when the rest of the Dodgers can't buy a hit, taking a liner off the thigh and staying in the game, and making friends with a Padres heckler who can't help but love the guy.
