The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the Astros closing out a World Series win. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss Houston being one of the best teams all season.  Yordan Alvarez was really impressive all season and the pitching came through in all aspects.  With the amount of strikeouts the Astros pitching got, it didn't leave many balls in play for a defense that was still spectacular.  Joe thinks this win will push teams, especially in the AL West, to try and create a hitting lineup that can move the ball around the field.  Dusty Baker finally gets his World Series championship after 25 years of managing.  Dusty has had the right demeanor to last so long in the game and had the perfect mentality to calm the situation and bring credibility back to Houston. As for the game itself, Tom was surprised to see the Phillies mood just tank when they were down.  We find out the one pivotal moment that changed the outcome. The 118th World Series was entertaining and both teams represented the game well.  We wrap up with music heard in Baker's office through the series.  Joe thinks the season should end with ZZ Top and 'Sharp Dressed Man' for Baker's upcoming offseason.

The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the World Series headed to Philadelphia.  Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss the environment for the game and both hope things don't get out of control.  Over the last few years, the Astros are used to hearing it from crowds on the road so Joe doesn't think it will affect them much. Find out how teams communicate during the game and how it could affect some key moments.  Onto Game 3, which is often the swing game in the series.  Joe knows Noah Syndergaard and explains which pitches he'll use and how long you can expect to see him in the game. We explore how Twitter exploded around Framber Valdez in Game 2 and how Rob Thomson addressed the issue. We learn the only reason that Joe would ever ask an ump to check a player's equipment.  Wrapping up, Joe recalls an RV he used to have named 'Cousin Eddie' and the many roadtrips it took.

Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss the Phillies giving up 5 runs and then rebounding on Justin Verlander.  Tom notes the managing job being done by Rob Thomson and how he's taken such an aggressive approach through the playoffs. Find out which tendencies Thomson has gone against and still had his moves pay off.  Joe gives us insight around Nick Castellanos and explains his 'levels' of players.  We try to figure out what happened with Verlander and how his pitching approach changed during the game. Now the Astros try to rebound in Game 2 with Framber Valdez. We wrap up with Tom's choice of music for the World Series and Joe recommends a band that some consider a guilty pleasure.

The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the Phillies and Astros in the World Series. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss the mentality of both teams and how different they are.  Joe likes the Philly 'vibe' right now and Tom thinks they're a club that's playing with very little pressure after making the postseason.  Bryce Harper's home run was a historic moment for him and Tom walks us through how it happened. Joe explains why manager needs to 'play' through the game before it even happens to know what he's doing in every situation. Looking back at the Yankees season, it's easy to say what needs to be different but you can't just change a team's identity in one series. Find out what Joe says isn't just 'nearly impossible' but just impossible for a team to do. Now we're ready for the games, Joe recalls managing Kyle Schwarber and reveals the impact the outfielder can have on a team and even a teammate like Bryce Harper. Bruce Bochy is back in the game and Tom wonders what it would take for Joe to return to the dugout. We wrap up with Bruce Springsteen and Tom's favorite selection from The Boss.

The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the power of postseason pitching. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss batters hitting just .211 at the plate.  The Astros right handed pitching staff controlled the Yankees lineup and the breaking ball has been the star. Joe doesn't want to hear any revisionist history talk about the Astros roof being open or not, both teams are playing on the same field and this series is far from over. We explore how players are disciplined in the postseason and Joe recalls his experiences as manager.  Plus, which manager eats a root beer barrel before the start of every 9th inning? The Padres are back in their series with the Phillies and Joe loved the matchup between the Nola brothers. We wrap up with first car memories and how that car is always cool and you'll never forget what you paid for it.

The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the Padres 5-3 win over the Dodgers. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon were both impressed with the managing job of Bob Melvin. The ability of Yu Darvish to change velocity is amazing and Joe thinks the gameplan included not throwing the same pitch twice during an at-bat.  Over to the Astros win, Joe explores Seattle bringing starter Robbie Ray to the mound as a reliever. Tom asks Joe about walking a batter with the bases loaded and the strategy that goes into facing a player like Aaron Judge.  With the passing of former MLB pitcher Dick Ellsworth, Tom offers up an amazing memory of just how many innings he pitched. How does the Cleveland fishing scandal relate to athletes always looking for an edge? Plus, we wrap up with Tom revisiting his Jefferson Starship collection and asking Joe for some classic rock recommendations.
