Bat Flips And Nerds Bat Flips & Nerds

The crew is back and discussing the past on the future of baseball. They start with discussions on the passing of Willie Mays and the amazing game at Rickwood Field before getting onto what more MLB can do in this area. They then discuss GB's Michael Petersen's debut and how much that means to fans and player in the UK before moving onto the tight wild card picture and how there might not be many trades out ther just yet.

John, Ben, Darius and Rob offer very final thoughts on the 2024 London Series and celebrate another banner week for British baseball with Michael Petersen's call up by the Dodgers.

They also take time to celebrate the phenomenon that is the Gay Grimace Mets and some underrated bum called Aaron Judge.

We'll have a new pod later this week wrapping up another brilliant moment in British baseball history.

In the meantime, we've brought together all the conversations we had this weekend into a single pod. These were peppered across the weekend, but we wanted as many of you as possible to hear them all - plus a couple of others we didn't include - as they offer brilliant reflections on the meaning of these series from across the baseball world. As a European fan, it's a heartening listen - and we proved them all right!

You'll hear from Sean Manaea, Whit Merrifield, Dave Dombrowski, Tony Clark, Felix White, Doug Glanville and Shane Victorino.

And from us all again very soon.

Tom, John and Darius wrap up an epic London Series 2024 - the best one yet!

What a weekend, we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

Something different today - an all-star interviewee line-up as Doug Glanville, Felix White, Tony Clark, Dave Dombrowski and Shane Victorino share their reflections of the London Series and its future.

Tom, John and Darius reflect on the first game of London Series 24 as the Phillies crush the Mets in the London Stadium.
