Hit & Run with Matt Spiegel

Matt Spiegel’s 5/26 interview with Doug Glanville is why Matt has been my favorite Score host. He brought baseball acumen, prep, and heart to his interview celebrating Black players’ contribution to the game. Thank you, Matt!

Great first show with Spiegel and Dempster. Looking forward to listening every week.

Really wanted to like this show with Matt, I listened loyally for a few years; I love his optimism and he clearly loves the game, which made the show much better. However, his anti-capitalist rhetoric is the reason I stopped listening. Where does the money that funds his paycheck come from? Ad reads, commercials, and deals with the large corporate entities. The hypocrisy demolished any respect I had for him.

Spiegel has the ability to turn any show he has pushed his way onto into a Spiegel-centric self-love fest. Baseball, a make-believe band and personal problems seem to be his topics of choice. If you’ve heard one show, you’ve heard them all.
