About this episode

Happy July 4th to all of our listeners! Joining us for this special holiday episode is Yankees catching coach/field coordinator Tanner Swanson, who sits for an extended chat with Yankees Magazine deputy editor Jon Schwartz. The two discuss pitch receiving, the evolution of the position and the absurdity of there not being more left-handed catchers. Then, Jon is joined by Yankees Magazine editor in chief Alfred Santasiere III, as the two discuss Al’s July cover story on pitcher Luis Gil. Finally, Brian Richards offers another chapter of History Books, this time looking at Babe Ruth’s kryptonite.
