We Hit It Out Of The Park With New York Yankees MLB.com Beat Reporter, Bryan Hoch and Hoodoo Brown Barbeque's, Alan Stinson

We Hit It Out Of The Park With New York Yankees MLB.com Beat Reporter, Bryan Hoch and Hoodoo Brown Barbeque's, Alan Stinson Bryan Hoch is the New York Yankees MLB.com beat reporter.  Covering the team on a daily basis has provided Bryan a chance to witness many great moments and seasons.  One of the greatest individual and season long accomplishments of recent memory was last year when New York Yankees slugger, Aaron Judge chased the American League's home run record which was held for 61 years by another Yankees great, Roger Maris who in 1961 had broken Babe Ruth's record of 60.  On October 4, 2022 Judge entered the record books as he hit home run number 62.  Hoch was there to witness this momentous moment and the other home runs leading up to it.  He documents it all in his new book, 62:  Aaron Judge, The New York Yankees, And The Pursuit Of Greatness.  The book details all of the home runs, but offers a much deeper look at baseball's history and many other players who are a part of it.  Bryan's impressions of the late New York Mets broadcaster, Bob Murphy and Back to the Future's, Doc Emmett Brown are a bonus not to be missed.   Alan Stinson is learning what it takes to be a top-notch pitmaster.  His training occurs at the extremely popular restaurant, Hoodoo Brown Barbeque where his brother, Tyler has earned the title of Sausage King.  We met some of the people from Hoodoo Brown at the Jeff Michner Foundation BBQ Benefit at Pig Beach and were eager to have them on the show.  Alan was presented as a perfect show guest since he played college baseball at Connecticut's, Albertus Magnus College.  We talked with Alan about baseball and barbecue, but one interesting fact we covered was that Alan is a vegetarian and has never tried any of the meats he is learning to cook.  Since taste is not a way he can tell if his barbecue is good, he must rely on other senses and Alan shares that. We conclude the show with the song, Baseball Always Brings You Home from the musician, Dave Dresser and the poet, Shel Krakofsky.
