The Umpire Strikes Back
Ranked 67th on GoodPods’ Top 100 Baseball Podcasts of All Time and Currently the #2 Baseball Podcast in Slovakia! New Episodes Starting Feb. 1st!
When you watch a baseball game, you get the opinion of the announcers, players, and coaches. What you’ll never get is the opinion of the umpire. Well, that time has come! With years of experience at the Little League and Travel Ball levels, I’ll bring you the insight of an umpire when it comes to rules, controversies, and everything else in the game of baseball.
