A Pod of Their Own, Episode 276: No longer in last place!
from Home Run Applesauce: A New York Mets podcast · host Home Run Applesauce
Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin by discussing the Mets’ up and down month of May, which at least ended on a positive note. We talk about whether the Mets can turn things around in June despite their tough schedule with help from the returning injured players. We also chat about the shifting sands of the rotation and congratulate Lee Mazzilli and Bobby Valentine for being inducted into the Mets Hall of Fame. In our baseball segment this week, we cover the opening bouts of the CBA fight, Trevor Williams suddenly becoming every conservative’s favorite baseball player, more degenerate gamblers threatening players’ families, and a very sleazy TMZ article implying that Adrián Beltré and Pedro Martinez believe Wander Franco should get a second chance (though their actual quotes are a bit more nuanced than that). 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. You can listen or subscribe to all of our wonderful Home Run Applesauce podcasts through Apple Podcasts, where we encourage you to leave a review if you enjoy the show. It really helps!
