Let me tell ya about life at the end of the bench…
What happened to episode 5? Don’t worry about it. I phoned it in last week. It was a sad attempt at a show. I apologize to anyone who listened live, and the only tape recording of the show has been burned.
The topic of six is nine. Baseball players, I mean. I talk baseball, include a brief run through my own statistics, from my broken arm all-star year to my 6-error CYO game, the only pitch I ever threw and my lifetime .082 high school average. Also, a real treat, Ohio State catcher Bubba Gyrion takes me through his league leading 3 ejections, and each “You’re outta here!” is great tale in and of itself.
I got some great baseball songs on the playlist. Who’s on First by Abbot and Costello, Van Lingle Mungo by Dave Frishberg, A Dying Cub Fan’s Last Request by Steve Goodman, and my personal favorite, (Let’s Go) Go-Go White Sox by none other than Captain Stubby and the Buccaneers.
