Founded in the back bedroom of a row-home in Juniata Park, we've long embodied the 'rough around the edges' underdog mentality that residents of Philly find so endearing. Our determination, perseverance, and ability to ultimately gain recognition by Major League Baseball as Philly's first independent media outlet to earn press credentials is a tribute to our passion for covering baseball in the Philly region.

Guest: Kyle Davis (Head Coach at Holy Family) | Ep. 17
Kyle Davis will make history when he takes to the diamond this fall as head coach of a new baseball program at Holy Family University.
Davis joins HFU from former Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC) member University of the Sciences (USciences), where he was the head coach from 2019-22 after previously spending one season as an assistant in 2014.
In his first season at the helm of his alma mater, the Devils set Division II-era program records with 17 overall wins and 13 CACC victories, both of which were more than double the season prior.
We discuss the building of a new program, his advice to players on choosing the right school, and the challenges of roster composition in a post-COVID world.
Enjoy!
