Starkville | Minor League living conditions and an interview with Alan...
Episode Description
Doug Glanville and Alan Schwarz met and became friends as students at the University of Pennsylvania. From there Doug went on to a Major League Baseball career and Alan went on to become a Pulitzer Price-nominated author, but their careers have overlapped time and time again and they both owe much of their success to each other. They discuss those paths as well as the problems with the game today including the conditions that minor leaguers face while chasing their dreams.
Doug then relates a story from his life to the recent incident at Coors Field where it was initially thought that a fan used a racial slur. All that plus listener trivia.
