from Pat's Peeps Podcast · host Pat Walsh

The crack of the bat and the smell of fresh paint signal more than just the arrival of spring; they herald personal tales and shared histories from the baseball diamond to my home front. As the 73rd episode of Pat’s Peeps unfolds, I invite you to join me for the onset of Major League Baseball's Opening Day—a legacy lovingly passed down by my parents, "Big" Bill Walsh, a Sacramento Baseball Hall of Famer, and my artistically gifted mother with her undying love for the game.Venture with me to the iconic Dodger Stadium—not just as a spectator, but as a son fulfilling a poignant promise to his late mother. While sharing this deeply personal story, I'll take you behind the scenes of confronting a disrespectful fan during Hideo Nomo's major league debut to protect my mother's honor. This episode is as much about the ties that bind us as it is about the game itself, where moments of reflection intertwine with the fervor of fandom.Finally, we'll laugh together at the missteps and quirky anecdotes from my early days chasing a dream with a camera in hand, and my plunge into radio with uncannily accurate baseball predictions.  Then we segue into the soulful sounds of 100 Proof, tying in themes of unwavering love and heroism. So, whether you're here for the love of baseball or the allure of storytelling, this episode is a grand slam of emotion and entertainment.
