Infield Fly Podcast - 2 guys that think they know what they're talking about. Baseball, football, sports talk
The MLB season comes to an end. The Dodgers are king to the surprise of no one. How slow will the MLB offseason be? Albert Pujols 2020 sprint speed slow. The Titans suffered their first loss of the 2020 campaign to the Steelers on Sunday. Where does the team stand as the trade deadline approaches? We also do our first power rankings of the season and give our Lock/Upset picks of the week in honor of online sports betting kicking off Sunday in Tennessee.
Ben's Granny Smith joins the pod to give us her takes on the Braves season and playoff failure. (3:57) The boys talk World Series and touch on who may win the hunk of metal. Titans move to 5-0 and have their biggest test of the season coming up on Sunday. The Vols suck because their QB play sucks and not because of a DL coach. OTD and trivia make their comeback this week.
In this episode the trifecta preview what is to come in the round before baseball's fall classic. They also discuss what exactly happened this weekend down in Athens and if the Vols have an answer a QB in the locker room.
It's the original two in this feature of Infield Fly. Ben and Blake update the current postseason situation, discuss the Seattle Storm's ride to a WNBA championship (satire), and look ahead to the Vols matchup with #3 Georgia this weekend in the SEC game of the week.
Postseason baseball is upon us. The tremendous trifecta tackle the bracket and give you their predictions. How many upsets have to happen to make sure this format is never used again. JD and Blake do not feel good, to say the least, with the Braves first round matchup. One of them didn't pick the Braves to advance. Who was it? Take a listen and see.
*Back as in returning to the field of play. (0:00) MLB recap for Ben, and we dip our toes into some MLB postseason waters. Braves three peat the NL East. AL Playoffs are starting to take form, while the NL looks like a mad house from the 5th seed down. (32:30) College football, the good kind, is coming back this Saturday. Vols travel to South Carolina this Saturday night to take on known hot head Will Muschamp. We discuss why it may not be so bad that JG is the Vols QB going into this season, and how a weakness that they have had for several years now looks to be the strength of the team.
Blake and JD tackle their first duo pod together. Lots of mistakes were made when predicting the MLB awards. We assess. Playoffs are on the horizon, Blake and JD preview what could come in a new expanded postseason.(0:00) NFL is back #TitanUp moves to 1-0. We forecast the 2020 NFL season. Do the Titans have a major weakness in the Pass D? Why are the Cowboys good but not great. Who is going to lose to the Chiefs in the Super Bowl? (47:18)
On this week's pod we break down the first three weeks of the MLB season, roast A-Rod for famously being a jerk on the field, and interview the "famous" Justin Pinkston (71:47). "Live life like it's a 3-0 count, unless you're winning of course."
We are two weeks into the shortened season. Ben, Blake, and JD discuss the players and teams that are hot to start this sixty game sprint and the those who may be wishing for a restart. JD and Blake talk about the fallout after some injuries plague the Braves, and we introduce a new segment in this week's pod! Come take a listen and leave a share. If you have anything you'd like to add to the pod send it to use on Facebook or Twitter.
We are back on the mic for the return of baseball. We break down the latest rule changes, and give our predictions on what is sure to be an unforgettable season.
