This week on Extra Time, Campbell went solo! Even though he was solo as a host, he was joined by the hard-hitting contributor for the Auckland Tuatara - Andrew "Pinky" Marck! Andrew is currently has a batting average of .360 and is having an extraordinary season at the plate in general with a .417 on-base Percentage but what makes this even more remarkable is that he used to be a pitcher. Andrew spent two seasons with the Brisbane Bandits as a reliever in 2011 and 2012 before heading back to his home country of New Zealand. Finally, when New Zealand got a professional baseball franchise, "Pinky" made a drastic change to become an outfield player and transform his batting. We think it worked wonders! But without any further ado, hear everything he had to say!

Happy New Year to the Beyond the Sidelines faithful! We're kicking 2020 off with a bang, as we sat down with Pavel 'The Bodyguard' Florin, a Romanian cricketer who quickly rose to fame after his unorthodox bowling style made its way around social media. But for all the talk about his bowling action, you won't find anyone who loves cricket more than Pavel - don't believe us? Well you'll have to listen to the interview to know for sure. Pavel's story goes well beyond what goes on out in the middle. After stumbling upon cricket, Pavel soon personified what the spirit of the game really is. After playing in the European Cricket League, he had to overcome visa issues to come to Australia, after being invited to play for the Surrey Hills Cricket Club in Melbourne. He spent a month in Victoria, playing some form of cricket almost daily, as well as mingling with some of the greatest players to have ever played such as Shane Warne and Brian Lara. Thanks again to Pavel, and we hope to see you back in Australia soon!
