- Baseball
The baseball press has been historically dominated by white men. Let's explore Latinx journalists and how the entire press has covered Latino players in baseball. Thank you to Julie Alexandria, Ozzie Guillen Jr, Maria Torres, and Fabian Ardaya for speaking with me. Make sure to check out Julie and Ozzie at La Vida Baseball, Fabian’s work in the Athletic and Maria’s work in the LA Times.
Information and sound clips for this episode come from the books Playing America’s Game by Adrian Burgos Jr, The Empire Strikes Out: How Baseball Sold U.S. Foreign Policy and Promoted the American Way Abroad by Robert Elias, the Ringer and the Athletic.
Our theme song and original music are produced by Alex Schmitten.
