Josh Lindblom played seven seasons in the major leagues, but he credits a lot of his development as a player and a man to his time pitching in the Korean Baseball Organization. After being drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the second round of the 2008 MLB Draft, he made stops with several major league teams. But he found immense success during his five seasons in the KBO. In 2019, he won the league's Most Valuable Player award and helped his Doosan Bears team win a Korean Series championship in 2019. In 2018 and 2019, he won the Choi Dong-won Award, the KBO's equivalent to the Cy Young Award, given to the league's best pitcher. Following his final stint in the KBO, where he proved to be one of the league's best players, he returned the major leagues to finish his career with the Milwaukee Brewers. He joins "Get in the Game" this week to talk about the highs and lows of his career, what led him to make the tough decision to play in the KBO and what he learned about God through all the changes of scenery in his career. "Get in the Game" is part of the Sports Spectrum Podcast Network. RELATED PODCASTS:— Steven Souza Jr. – Former Pro Baseball Player— Trevor Hoffman – Hall of Fame Closer— Adam Wainwright – Legendary Cardinals Pitcher
Trey Hillman has nearly 40 years of experience in professional baseball across the major leagues and the top leagues in Japan and Korea. He managed the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters of the Nippon Professional Baseball League and won the 2006 Japan Series, then managed the SK Wyverns of the KBO League to the Korean Series championship. In the middle of all of that, he held a number of assistant and bench coach positions and also served as manager of the Kansas City Royals from 2008-2010. He's a man of faith and has a heart of service. He connects with Scott Linebrink this week on "Get in the Game" to talk about his career, what service means to him and how his faith is the backbone of all he does.

Vote on the pants and hair. That's how Award Season: Boyfriend Edition might play out. Our guys did well across the Silver Sluggers and Gloves both Gold and Platinum (Patti 13, Pottymouth 11, if anyone is keeping score -- we certainly wouldn't do that), but our pre-season predictions don't hold up. You can still vote for your baseball bfs for the All-MLB team. It was “Business As Usual” at the annual GM meeting, at least according to every single GM quoted anywhere. We do appreciate a good set of talking points. Scott Boras made a predictable splash by speaking the truth about tanking and the need to incentivize all teams to win. Pottymouth sets up the entertainment to come with Big Papi and ARod facing off on the newly-released Hall of Fame ballot.It's Labor Day in November as Patti takes you through the economic issues on both the players' union and the league sides in collective bargaining. MLB sees a defined pot of money and is just talking about different ways to slice it up, whereas the players don't put an upper limit on their value -- especially the younger players. We have thoughts about the proposal tying pay to fWAR, getting to arbitration and FA sooner vs eliminating negotiations altogether and keeping players under team control for longer, and changes to the draft to address tanking on purpose. We hypothesize on what it means that a majority of the union's player subcommittee are pitchers, Boras clients, and Patti's bfs.Pottymouth's favorite CPBL team could pull off a trip to the league championship, and has to spend some time explaining to Patti how the playoff system is real. The Korean Series is underway. We celebrate that LMB loves Fernando Rodney like we do, naming him Reliever of the Year. Former Pottymouth BFs Franmil (en route) and Franchy add to the fun of watching LIDOM. Daddy Yankee, new co-owner of the LBPRC's Cangrejeros de Santurce, encourages more celebrities to shine a light on the league. The Hammers' William Contreras heads to Venezuela to join the Cardinales, in a league where managers are setting records for shortest careers. Your vocabulary word of the week is “jonrón.”We say “shenanigans,” “Mountcastle was robbed,” and “eat the rich.”Get vaxxed, fight the man, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Today's theme : Baseball (2017 KBO League) The KBO League is the highest level league of baseball in South Korea. The KBO started play in 1982 with six teams. Four of them have since changed their names and one has relocated, while the league added four more along the way. Flash forward to 2017, there are 10 teams in the league, all working towards the goal of being one of five playoff teams and winning this fall's Korean Series. >>>The Conversationalist with Cho Seong-min (조성민) sports reporter for tbs efm's morning show This Morning “KBO, or the Korean Baseball Organization League, was launched in 1982. How did Korean baseball changed before and after KBO? What's the importance of Korean Series? In Korea's pro league, teams are affiliated with big conglomerates like Kia, Lotte, Samsung, etc. How does this positively or negatively affect the league?” & Dan Kurtz founder of MyKBO (website about the Korean Baseball Organization, created to help non-Korean speakers learn more about KBO) “Why do you think Korea is one of a few countries where baseball scene is big and famous? There was also a famous match fixing scandal recently - how common is this?” >>>Media Monster The Room The Room is a 2003 American independent romantic drama film starring, written, directed, and produced by Tommy Wiseau.
