The New MVP of Record
Listen now
Description
Josh Gibson finally gets his due as greatest hitter of all time, now let’s name the award after him. Stats from the Negro Leagues are finally integrated into the MLB stats and we see how opportunity affects counting stats vs rate stats. Winn and Volpe snap some streaks and in one case we end up with a DiMaggio sandwich. We lose more bfs to the IL –  Grissom is back out, Means and Wells are season-ending out. Patti is grateful Yoshinobu is holding his own and her closer is back. Joey Gallo is in line for dad power now that the secret is out. Although we cannot endorse flinging gloves into the stands, we do feel for Jorge Lopez. The NCAA baseball tournament is on, and we check in on our adopted D1 and DIII teams. We crosstrain with women’s hockey champions, and Celtics doing good  work. We say, “Quite the pucker there,” “It  was condiment Friday. Put a cardigan over it and it’s dressy,” and “I can’t believe I couldn’t put 2 and 2 together and get 7.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Twitter @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.
