Sports investing has evolved as franchise values have risen, live sports have retained a powerful hold on audiences, and ownership has become an increasingly sophisticated business. Yet sports teams remain unusual assets, combining economics with competition, community identity and deeply emotional fan relationships.Host Oscar Pulido speaks with David Rubenstein, co-founder and co-chairman of The Carlyle Group and control partner of the Baltimore Orioles ownership group, about his move from private equity into sports investing. They discuss his decision to invest in his hometown team, the role franchises can play in their cities, and how leadership differs when success is measured by more than financial returns.The conversation also explores the forces influencing sports investing, from rising franchise values and broader ownership participation to live media demand, AI-powered analytics and longer-term developments across capital markets.Key moments in the episode:00:00 Meet David Rubenstein02:10 Sports ownership and Civic Responsibility04:06 Camden Yards and Baltimore City Revival06:42 What Owners Really Do09:00 Winning Over Profits10:24 Long Horizon Decisions13:06 Sports as an Asset Class15:45 AI in Sports and Moneyball 2.017:11 Next 20 Years of Investing20:28 First Orioles Game Memories21:38 Closing and Up Next

On episode 360 of Baseball and BBQ, Barbecue Hall of Famer Melissa Cookston joins us to talk about her new cookbook, Fanning the Flames, and reveals the kind and funny woman behind the tough TV-judge persona. Then, Seth S. Tannenbaum, PhD, takes us inside his fascinating new book, Bleacher Seats and Luxury Suites, exploring how America's ballparks have reflected the class, social, and economic divisions of our society. Melissa Cookston is a pitmaster, restaurateur, and television personality.  She is a seven-time World Barbecue Champion and a member of the Barbecue Hall of Fame.  She is the author of three cookbooks, Smokin' in the Boys' Room, Smokin' Hot in the South, and her latest, Fanning the Flames: Recipes and Tall Tales from BBQ Hall of Famer Melissa Cookston. In 2021 Melissa founded the World Junior BBQ League, a nonprofit that uses barbecue competitions to teach kids leadership, teamwork, and strategy.  She also launched The BBQ Allstars retail superstore.  Melissa has appeared on both BBQ Pitmasters and Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives and as a judge on Netflix's Barbecue Showdown. Seth S. Tannenbaum is an assistant professor of sport studies at Manhattanville University where he teaches classes including Baseball and American Society, Spectators and Fans, Urban Sport, and American Sport History.  His work has been published in The Journal of African American History, The Journal of Sport History, Nine: A Journal of Baseball History & Culture, the Washington Post, and the Philadelphia Inquirer.  He joins us to discuss his latest book, Bleacher Seats and Luxury Suites:  Democracy and Division at the Twentieth-Century Ballpark. We tend to think of the baseball stadium as one of America's great democratic spaces—a place where people from different backgrounds come together to cheer for the same team. But Tannenbaum challenges that familiar idea, asking a provocative question: Has the ballpark ever really been as democratic as we like to believe?  In his book, Seth explores how major league ballparks have reflected and reinforced divisions of class, race, wealth, geography, and access. While baseball promoted the idea that the game was available to everyone, the experience inside the ballpark was often far more complicated.  Some of the stadiums discussed include The Polo Grounds, Yankee Stadium, Dodger Stadium, The Houston Astrodome, and Camden Yards.

Munaf Manji and Dave Essler talk betting for Thursday. Munaf Manji and Uncle Diamond Dave Essler take on a focused Thursday card on Cash That Ticket, covering Game 6 of the NBA Western Conference Finals and three all-divisional MLB matchups on the Straight Outta Vegas AM feed. The Oklahoma City Thunder arrive in San Antonio holding a 3-2 series lead with Jalen Williams listed as questionable, Ajay Mitchell officially ruled out with a right soleus calf strain, and Thomas Sorber also unavailable, while the Spurs enter with a clean injury report for an elimination game at home. The Spurs open as 3.5-point favorites at a total of 219.5, and both hosts target the under as the primary play. Dave makes the case from Game 5 numbers he considers unsustainable, including OKC shooting 48 percent from three, 70 combined free throws, 26 Spurs fast break points, and 241 total points in a San Antonio loss. He expects the Spurs to slow the pace and play one possession at a time to force a Game 7, while also noting that eight of the last nine Spurs games went over yet this total is the highest they have faced in months. Munaf goes further by also laying the 3.5 points with San Antonio, using Game 4's 103-82 result as his stylistic template, and identifies the first half total of 106.5 as a secondary under spot. On props, Dave targets Stephon Castle at plus 116 for two or more threes made, backed by five-plus attempts in four of his last five games and a Thunder defensive focus on Wembanyama that consistently opens the perimeter for Castle. Munaf backs De'Aaron Fox rebounds plus assists over 9.5 on FanDuel after the number cashed easily in Game 5, and reads Wembanyama as more likely to impact the game through scoring than rebounding given OKC box-out adjustments over the last three games. The baseball card features three 6:35 to 6:40 Eastern divisional matchups. In Baltimore, Patrick Corbin faces Chris Bassitt, who takes on his former team at Camden Yards with a sharp home-road split showing a 3.46 ERA at home against an 8.02 on the road. Dave leans Toronto at the underdog price, while Munaf backs the Orioles and over 8.5, noting Pete Alonso as a home run prop candidate and Corbin's career struggles against Baltimore. In Pittsburgh, Paul Skenes draws the Cubs in a spot where the data runs against his reputation. In four home starts against Chicago, Skenes has never completed five innings, owns a 5.60 ERA, and has allowed 11 earned runs and five home runs in 17.1 innings against Cubs bats. Winds blow out at 13 miles per hour at PNC Park and both hosts back the over 7.5 with the Cubs first five innings money line as a supporting play. The rubber match between Houston and Texas closes the card with Spencer Arrighetti facing Nathan Eovaldi. These starters combined for more than 14 innings and zero runs when they each faced these same opponents roughly two weeks earlier. Dave makes the Astros first five innings plus 0.5 runs at minus 120 his official best bet, keeping Houston's struggling bullpen out of the equation while the half-run cushion protects a tie after five. Munaf takes the first five under, citing Eovaldi's streak of six-plus innings in five straight starts and a seven-inning Astros shutout on May 17th as reasons the total stays low early. Best bets for Thursday are the Astros first five plus 0.5 runs from Dave and Cubs-Pirates over 7.5 from Munaf.
