  • Must Listen for College Baseball Fans

    This podcast is ESSENTIAL for anyone remotely interested in college baseball. The group of personalities is dynamic and they are fantastic at growing the game. They took me from a single team fan to someone who watches a mid major matchup in the midweek to stay in the know. D1 Daily pods get me through the days with little baseball to watch.

Lance Berkman – Part 2: Big Puma Origins & Astros Clubhouse Chaos [D1 Daily]
Q: Is there an origin story for the “Leave Room for a Miracle” slogan?
Berkman said it developed as a hitting mantra: even when an at-bat feels hopeless, a pitcher can make a mistake, giving the hitter a chance to stay alive and produce a hit.
Lance Berkman – Part 2: Big Puma Origins & Astros Clubhouse Chaos [D1 Daily]
Q: Would you like to tell us the story of the Big Puma nickname?

Lance Berkman – Part 1: Hitting Under Pressure, Two-Strike Approach [D1 Daily]
Q: When you've heard people coaching hitters to, you know, swing hard in case you hit it, how have you held your tongue?
Berkman criticizes launch-angle instruction that encourages hitters to lift high fastballs, saying it can take the barrel out of position. He favors a compact, efficient swing that keeps the barrel behind the ball and supports consistent contact.
