A 1980s designated hitter is traded to the National League, a fish-needs-a-bicycle baseball moment reminiscent of recent US diplomacy, and a 20-game winner who pitched as Theodore Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill throws it all away in favor of good diction. 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. Baseball Prospectus's Steven Goldman shares his obsessions: history from inside and outside of the game, politics, stats, and 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?

The Detroit Tigers won two of three games against the Chicago Cubs in a potential World Series preview between the American League's best team and the National League's best team. To break it all down, ESPN reporter Jesse Rogers — who covers the Cubs and White Sox — joins the Days of Roar podcast. He shares his thoughts on how the Tigers became the best team in baseball, Javier Báez's resurgence, the Cubs' rise in the NL, and big news surrounding White Sox ownership. Evan Petzold and Mark Gorosh dive into the Tigers' offense — which has fallen from top five in the first 44 games to bottom five over the last 23 games. They also talk about other key topics, including Colt Keith at third base, Riley Greene's strikeout issues, Kerry Carpenter's hamstring, the latest injury report, and a season-ending injury to top prospect Bryce Rainer.

Episode #352: Nicholas Coppel's tenure as Australia's ambassador to Myanmar (2015–2018) provides a unique lens on the country's transition toward democracy, as well as the enduring challenges posed by military dominance. Serving during the historic 2015 elections, Coppel witnessed the National League for Democracy (NLD) rise to power under Aung San Suu Kyi. Yet despite the optimism surrounding the election, the military's entrenched authority under the 2008 Constitution continued to hinder reform. Retaining control of key ministries and 25% of parliamentary seats, the military ensured an enduring imbalance of power, despite the civilian government's best efforts. Coppel's engagement was largely with the civilian government, as the military remained resistant to diplomacy. Australian programs like English language training for military officers aimed to bridge gaps, but he acknowledges their limited impact. Coppel's reflections highlight how this lack of meaningful dialogue with the military constrained international efforts to anticipate or mitigate future conflicts, including during and after the 2021 coup. Coppel outlines the difficult balance the international community faces in responding to Myanmar's post-coup environment. He notes that symbolic gestures like refusing to appoint ambassadors are clear signals of disapproval but do not exert meaningful pressure on the military regime. He warns that some well-intentioned actions, such as corporate withdrawals, have produced perverse outcomes—like increasing the military's revenue share in sectors such as oil and gas—while simultaneously harming ordinary civilians, such as garment workers losing jobs. Rather than blanket disengagement, he encourages a more thoughtful approach: supporting efforts that sustain the people of Myanmar without empowering the military, including initiatives like exile media, telehealth, and distance education. Technology, according to Coppel, plays a dual role in Myanmar's crisis. While it enables resistance through fundraising and information sharing, it also facilitates military surveillance and propaganda. Despite these challenges, he remains cautiously optimistic, believing that change will come from the resilience of Myanmar's people. “I would encourage your listeners to remain engaged with Myanmar. I would hate to think that the country and our attention on it, and our interest in it is diminished because of the actions of a military general,” Coppel urges, emphasizing the importance of global support for the people of Myanmar.

Mitch and Charlie are back for another edition of the Tapping The Keg podcast. In this week's podcast, we cover the Milwaukee Brewers, Green Bay Packers, and the NBA FInals. The podcast begins with Charlie and Mitch going through each team in the National League and seeing where the Brewers belong. They also talk about the massive homestand coming up. The podcast rolls on with the boys discussing how the silly season of the NFL got Jordan Love with the regression talk plus could the Packers defense actually be better this year? Lastly, they talk about the NBA's need to embrace the small markets with the NBA Finals of Oklahoma City Thunder and the Indiana Pacers

In the first hour of The Steakhouse, Steak dug into the woes of the Atlanta Braves at the plate as they continue their race to the bottom of the National League. We also discussed how spoiled Atlanta sports fans have been with the Georgia Bulldogs and Braves in recent years and finished the hour with a Tailgate.

With the Midsummer Classic set to take place in Atlanta at Truist Park on July 15th, today is the day that All-Star Game ballots have dropped—and it's up to the public to make their choices. While some players might be locks to start the game (looking at you, Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani), there are a few sports that could see some interesting position battles. Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman go down the ballots for the American and National League squads, making their picks for who they think should be voted in as starters. They wonder if Juan Soto can beat out an impressive trio of NL outfielders, why Dave Roberts could be selective with his Los Angeles Dodgers players and whether Rafael Devers even bothers to bring a glove with him to Atlanta. Later on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys examine the weird season that the Atlanta Braves are having—and why it's oddly similar to the Boston Red Sox—before going around the league to discuss all the injury news surrounding the Houston Astros and New York Mets, among other teams. They close the show with the latest news surrounding the Men's and Women's College World Series.(3:38) - AL All-Star starting squad(20:54) - NL All-Star starting squad(40:29) - What's up with the Braves?(56:45) - BBQ Boo Boo List updates(1:07:26) - College World Series news  Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Matt Spiegel and Laurence Holmes took stock of the Cubs as they're tied for the best record in the National League early in June.

The Milwaukee Brewers came into the week having not swept any series this year, and now they've swept them back-to-back. Including two walk-off wins, an eight-run inning, a series of strong individual hitting performances, Milwaukee took down Boston at home and then cleaned up against the best team in the National League, Philadelphia. Brewers reporter Todd Rosiak and host JR Radcliffe discuss how real it is, the somewhat concerning injury to Christian Yelich, the decision to cut ties with Tyler Alexander, the back-to-back rough starts from Freddy Peralta, the excellence of Rhys Hoskins and the ascendance of Caleb Durbin. In Three Up Three Down (25:00), they discuss big Sal Frelick moments, Chad Patrick and Quinn Priester and the walk-off grand slam by Yelich. Remembrew When looks back at another memorable walk-off granny (40:10) against Boston and Todd's Take of the Week looks at the big homestand ahead (46:15). Then, JR sits down with Brewers reliever Abner Uribe (49:30), discussing his origins with the Brewers, his celebrations and more. That's followed by a conversation with USA TODAY sports columnist Bob Nightengale (55:15) to discuss the viability of Brewers owner Mark Attansio as a candidate for baseball commissioner, looming labor strife in the league and how the Brewers are regarded nationally. Music intro from bensound.com.

Tek & Prem discuss the Eagles first OTAs of the offseason, with position battles looming and a fresh energy in the air. The Draft Class is strong, yet again, and the veterans are in place as the Birds prepare for a run at a repeat Super Bowl Championship. The Jalen Hurts doubters have multiplied, once again, and the Jordan-Brand representative has another year ahead of him proving them all wrong. Training Camp is around the corner. The Phillies boast the best winning percentage in the National League as they get set for a trio of games against the Brewers at the Bank this weekend. After taking 2 of 3 from the Braves at home this week, they will look to stay on track against an underachieving, .500 Milwaukee ball club. Kyle Schwarber continues his torrid pace of power, sitting tied for 2nd in MLB with 19 HR. Trea has come on strong in May, hitting .302 overall, which is good for 13th in baseball. Pitching will continue to lead the way, and with the trade deadline approaching in July, moves or a big move is expected to bolster this beleaguered and inconsistent bullpen.

  Near the visitors' dugout at Coors Field in September 2024, Cardinals veteran Matt Carpenter found a relatively quiet spot to discuss his career, his future plans, and the dramatic shifts he's seen in the game since his arrival in 2011 with the Best Podcast in Baseball.  Carpenter announced his retirement this past week after 14 seasons in the majors, and included a six-year run as one of the top leadoff hitters in the game to go with three All-Star appearances and a Silver Slugger Award at second base. This is a BPIB replay of the full episode that first dropped on Sept. 28, 2024. From the original launch of this episode: Toward the end of his first professional season, not too long after he told a roommate Oliver Marmol about his personal and accelerated timetable to reach the majors, Matt Carpenter got a phone call that could have forever changed his career in baseball. He was approached about being a coach, and he was tempted to take it. The next summer his playing career took off. There are baseball cards galore and probably a Cardinals Hall of Fame red jacket in his future that tell how that story ended, but Carpenter shares with the Best Podcast in Baseball how close he came to moving to a role in the game that he might eventually also have. A three-time All-Star who returned to the Cardinals for the 2024 season, Carpenter joins the Best Podcast in Baseball and baseball writer Derrick Goold for a conversation many months in the making. The two spoke this past week near the batting cage at Coors Field, just ahead of the Cardinals' season finale in San Francisco. From his early days with the Cardinals as a spring-training standout and favorite of manager Tony La Russa, Carpenter's career had to constantly evolve. He became a second baseman. He became a leadoff hitter. He broke a doubles record long held by Stan Musial, and then his changed his swing and late in one season led the National League in homers and slugging on his way to MVP considerations. And through it all, a coach's kid out of Texas who judged his production by how high above .300 his average was had to learn in real time as the game shifted to take that away from him, quite literally. He had to embrace slugging. He had to reinvent his swing. He had to reclaim his career. And over the course of this season, Goold asked Carpenter if he would talke about all he learned about Major League Baseball's modern offense and how difficult it has become to be a hitter in a game when failure, already abundant, is increasing. Consider the math. As batting average has grown less important, hitters are being told they can do more with a .270 average and slugging than singling their way to a .330 average, and still that difference is six outs, six fewer times succeeding. Carpenter has some thoughts and offers lots of insight. This brand-new BPIB begins as all good stories do on a road trip with Matt Holliday and Carpenter and the trouble they encountered somewhere between Stillwater, Oklahoma, and Memphis, Tennessee. The conversation also touches on what went sideways for the Cardinals' offense during a season that will finish with a winning record but nowhere close to the team's stated goal of contending for the NL Central title and returning to the playoffs. Carpenter also discusses his immediate and longterm future, which brings up the story about the phone call he received while playing Class A baseball for the Cardinals with an offer he wasn't sure he could refuse. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
