Podcast appearances and mentions of Bobby Cox

Our hilarious guest is Kent Mercker, former MLB pitcher who spent 18 seasons in the big leagues and shared clubhouses with 17 Hall of Famers throughout his remarkable career. We dive into his experiences with Greg Maddux, John Smoltz, and Tom Glavine, getting an inside look at what made each of them such extraordinary players, competitors, and teammates. Plus, we’re never going to pass up a great Bobby Cox story, and Mercker has plenty of them. He threw a no-hitter, was part of a combined no-hitter, and accomplished something else that makes him the only player in baseball history to achieve all three. Find out what that unique distinction is in the interview. He’s also a proud girl dad, a role he considers one of his greatest accomplishments. He shares a memorable moment with Mark McGwire that we’re willing to bet you’ve never heard before, along with a Vin Scully story that absolutely gave us chills.

Spend Father’s Day with your favorite father-son baseball podcasting duo, Tim and Jeff Kurkjian! We cover all the latest happenings across Major League Baseball, but first, we kick things off with a Kurkjian Quandary about golf (yes, we love these). The Marlins are playing great baseball, and so is Bryce Harper. Harper and Manny Machado both reflect on how different the game is today, especially when it comes to facing pitching compared to when they first broke into the majors. Plus, the commissioner of the podcast, Mike Schur, shares a Quirkjiian that will have you thinking about unassisted triple plays in a whole new way. And on this date, we celebrate baseball legends Bobby Cox, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays. We'd say that's a pretty strong lineup. Then we spin the Wheel of Kurkjian and talk all things baseball—it's kind of the perfect segment. Thanks so much for listening or watching, and thank you for being part of our family!

The Atlanta Braves closed out an impressive homestand with a three-game sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates, improving their MLB-best record to 45-21. Grant McAuley catches you up on all the biggest stories for Atlanta, including one of the biggest strengths of the team this season -- their much-improved bench. The group of Mauricio Dubón, Jorge Mateo and Dominic Smith have led a group of reserves that has allowed manager Walt Weiss to have considerable options in the lineup and the late innings. You'll hear from Smith, who changed the Braves' plans for the designated hitter spot by becoming one of the most productive bats on the team. Special guest David Justice shares his stories and memories from the 1995 World Series, his game-winning home run, the 1990s Braves' rise to perennial contender, and what it meant to play for Hall of Fame manager Bobby Cox. It's a collection of stories you don't want to miss.

There is no denying the impact of Bobby Cox on the history of baseball, and that his passing marks the loss of an incalculable acumen that shaped the game in the 1990s and 2000s. But baseball has tried to deny another aspect of Cox: his impact off the field. Mike and Bill try to sort through both to find the whole of the man, for better and for worse, not just the Hall of Fame manager, leader and teacher.  Plus, happy birthday to Babe Adams and Carlos May! And farewell to Rob Duliba and Chuck Nieson.

It’s May 21st, and Tim comes out of the gate putting Jeff to the test. Did he take the bait and miss, or hit the nail on the head? We open with pitching, because it is just that good right now. Our GameChanger of the Week looks at how hitters are reacting to the incredible pitching we’re seeing. Is this the end of the long-ball era? Maybe?? Just when we thought a once-in-a-lifetime extra-inning performance was behind us, another one came out of nowhere. More pitching records that made us laugh, and a no-no leads to a walk-off? You don’t see that often. Happy birthday to the late Bobby Cox, and what an amazing character our game lost this month. We spin the Wheel of Kurkjian and talk ambidexterity and inside-the-park homers, then wrap it all up with Three Cards in the Bathroom.

From Mike Breen's calls and Knicks fans taking over Philly news to Josh Hart questioning the city's sports status, the New York takeover was total, while Victor Wembanyama made headlines for all the wrong reasons with a nasty elbow ejection. It was a brutal weekend elsewhere as the Yankees were swept by the Brewers and the Mets fell to the Diamondbacks. Also, a tribute to the late Bobby Cox and a countdown to Eddie's retirement. We even have everything from Tyreek Hill's bizarre legal settlement and Antonio Brown's TikToks to Breece Hall's new Jets deal and the breaking news that the NFL season opens with Cowboys at Giants.

Welcome back to the Baseball Tonight podcast, publishing a day early because of breaking news surrounding Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal. His agent, Scott Boras, joined us to give us the details surrounding this first-time surgical procedure on an MLB player that could cut Skubal's recovery time in half. He also shares his memories about the late Bobby Cox. ESPN's Jesse Rogers then hops on to discuss the surprising reason for the Cubs early-season success, and who they could target at the trade deadline. We then switch to the AL where he tells us which playoff-favorite teams he's most concerned about. We finish the segment discussing some concerns about Boston's Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow. Finally, Royals broadcaster Eric Hosmer joins us to react to the Skubal news from Boras and why it could be a life-changing for the game of baseball. He then also shares his AL teams he's most concerned about. We finish with the state of sign-stealing in today's game.

Ben Lindbergh and Meg Rowley banter about the late Ted Turner’s explanation for firing Bobby Cox, how MVP-caliber Mike Trout returned and whether a Trout trade is too much to hope for, Carlos Correa’s season-ending injury and the outlook for the Astros, the offseason’s influx of free-agent retreads from NPB and/or the KBO, and a transparent plunking by Framber Valdez, then Stat Blast (1:25:43) about a Pirates scheduling quirk, an unlikely no. 9 batter, hitting-streak outliers, improbable power outages, identical beginnings to innings, and which events get starting pitchers pulled, plus reactions to the surprising starts of Ildemaro Vargas, Fernando Tatis Jr., Patrick Bailey, Austin Hedges, and Adley Rutschman.
