Baseball's Weather Playbook

from Off the Radar · host The National Weather Desk

Today we pull back the curtain on baseball's most invisible yet game-altering force: weather. In this episode, we're unraveling the meteorological mysteries that can transform a seemingly ordinary pitch into a moment of sporting legend. With two decades of sideline expertise, veteran sports reporter Morgan Adsit brings firsthand accounts of how atmospheric conditions have shaped baseball's most memorable moments. We'll also talk to Clay Nunnally, an MLB scientist at the forefront of wind dynamics research, who will deconstruct long-standing home run myths using cutting-edge scientific modeling that's rewriting our understanding of the game. Get ready to see baseball through an entirely new lens – where every gust of wind could be the difference between a routine play and sporting history.
