Description
Two friends who met playing baseball decided to do a podcast about, yeah, you guessed it, baseball. Ashley who had no prior experience with this sport thought it would be a good idea to join a team. Ian, who grew up watching it with his family for more years then he cares to admit. Join us as we discuss baseball from the grassroots up. From our delayed season start of the newly developed East of England Baseball League (EEBL) to the MLB. We hope this will encourage you to pick up a bat and give it a go, learn something or at the very least, something to chuckle at. What could go wrong?
