Podcasts about Inning

Before we go back to 2018 for a discussion of the only Cubs general manager who was moonlighting from his job at the fish-market and a non-baseball tale, one of the more obscure and unflattering episodes of America's westward expansion, we discuss our need for a shared reality and one of the earliest conspiracy theories. How are you going to be here with us if you believe that we're being controlled by them?  The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. Baseball, America's brighter mirror, often reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman discusses the game's present, past, and future with forays outside the foul lines to the culture at large. Expect history, politics, stats, and frequent Casey Stengel quotations. Along the way, we'll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can't get anybody out?

Ken Carman and Anthony Lima discuss the Cleveland Guardians' rally against Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal in Tuesday night's Cleveland victory, and the possibility of the red-hot Guardians facing off again with the ice-cold Tigers.

Babe Ruth backs the attack as Babe Ruth gets married, but to a guy named H.C., not a former model named Claire. Cal Raleigh goes on a rampage and Mickey Mantle finishes 1961 quietly, but why did the latter happen and what can we learn from the way he and Billy Martin lived their lives? The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine. America's brighter mirror, baseball reflects, anticipates, and even mocks the stories we tell ourselves about our world today.

MLB: Roki Sasaki Pitches 1 Hitless, Scoreless Inning in Triple-A Relief Debut

...Because you might just field the ball with your skull. This week's new remarks include further reflections on the national calamity unleashed last week, leading into a reissue episode focused on a time the manager of the Dodgers, a chronic lie, told a self-protective, CYA fib that got away from him and nearly cost him his job. We also get a look back at slugging first baseman whose knee quit in spectacular fashion, and, in part one, a 1941 story about a “dumb” player which is revealed to have had the opposite meaning from the author's intention.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, we try to figure out the Dodgers postseason roster, and how things can change round by round.

In which the outfielder called Zaza is rediscovered, as is the hit “dirty” turn-of-the-century play that gave him his name. We then briefly pause for a Dodgers outfielder's career to come to a sudden end, leading to an unusual inning in more ways than one, and the ride concludes with a visit to the world of September 1901 and an argument about who acts, who doesn't, and what games they might have attended instead.

Also last week, both catchers got injured, two starting pitchers were scratched, plus more on the offense struggling for over two months, 40-man roster decisions coming, plus pending returns of Max Muncy, Alex Vesia, and Tommy Edman from the injured list.

First a catcher and an umpire supposedly participate in a physically impossible act, a computer program vexes the host and leads to a discussion of one possibly beneficial use of AI, and the Yankees acquire a very good hitter because everyone else is in the Army.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers dropped a second straight game to the Pirates, failing to score a run Wednesday night. But more importantly, catcher Will Smith was hit on his right hand by a foul ball and left the game with a right hand contusion.

We begin the hour talking about the Yankees and the big inning they had in yesterday's blowout win. Anthony Volpe was booed in an inning his team scored nine runs. Jerry thinks the fans went too far. Willie says you can't tell fans when to boo. Jerry says he doesn't want to do that but wants fans to enjoy a blowout win and wonders if easing off Volpe can help him play better. Jerry and Willie also didn't like that red-hot Giancarlo Stanton wasn't in the lineup.

The Yankees' blowout win sparked debate when Anthony Volpe was booed despite the team scoring nine runs. Jerry felt fans went too far, while Willie argued against dictating how fans express themselves. They also questioned Giancarlo Stanton's absence from the lineup. C-Lo returned with an update, noting Evan Roberts' admiration for Nolan McLean and playing a Philadelphia radio host's rant reminiscent of Jerry's classics. Cody Bellinger homered in the Yankees' 11-2 win over the Nationals. C-Lo shared Taylor Townsend's explanation of her match with Jelena Ostapenko. Tom Brady can attend production meetings but not practices, which Jerry thinks won't affect his job, though Willie understands why some broadcasters value watching practice. Jordon Hudson and Bill Belichick want to trademark "gold digger." In the final segment, Jerry recounted his experience at a Lady Gaga concert, noting the large gay male presence, which reminded Willie of a past unwelcome encounter. Jerry then asked Brian Rascona about his Ryder Cup volunteer assignment.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers finished off a sweep of the Reds behind Shohei Ohtani striking out nine and lasting five innings for the first time in his first pitching win for the Dodgers. In all, Dodgers pitchers set a team record for a nine-inning game with 19 strikeouts, plus the team finally solved Nick Lodolo with a four-run fourth inning. Also, Freddie Freeman suffered a neck stinger and sat out Wednesday, and injury updates on Alex Call and the soon-to-be returning Hyeseong Kim, Michael Kopech, and Max Muncy.

In this week's new remarks, we consider a revival of the baseball musical Damn Yankees which may let the bigoted owners of the original Washington Senators off the hook for destroying their franchise, with a quick look at the Homestead Grays' residency in the District of Columbia. In the reissue part of the show, we return to “The Turtle Who Was Hated By God,” which is exactly what it sounds like, make a quick stop with a catcher who was heavily into OBP, and finally view racist mascots through the lens of the 17th century Pequot War.   The Infinite Inning is a journey to the past to understand the present using baseball as our time machine.

But Freddie Freeman homered twice, Dalton Rushing hit a go-ahead three-run home run, and Shohei Ohtani homered as well.

On this episode of the Three-Inning Save podcast, the Dodgers salvaged their final game of the season at Coors Field to secure a series split, and still have not lost a series to a National League West opponent in 10 tries in 2025. Freddie Freeman and Andy Pages homered on Thursday, the latter snapping a bizarre streak for Pages hitting his previous 16 home runs at Dodger Stadium. Clayton Kershaw improved to 7-2 after a loss this season, including wins in such games in all four August starts, with a 1.90 ERA so far this month. The Dodgers are 24-9 against the NL West, and will put that to the test against the Padres this weekend at Petco Park in San Diego.
