  • Essential Listening

    This has been my gateway into the world of college baseball, and I can say it has made me a fan. Had no idea about the Boston connection! You should devote an episode of the landscape of New England collegiate baseball. As a new resident, I am still trying to figure it out. :)

  • Leaves a lot to be desired

    First episode I listen too, included in the title “Oregons Strong start to the season” and they spent 20 seconds talking about Oregon. Audio quality is also sub par.
