We also discuss the latest update in the Thom Brennaman situation—his resignation from announcing, his and the Reds’ bogus statements, and the unfortunate pattern of treating people in marginalized communities like opportunities to better oneself.
Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
