Starkville | HOF Manager Jim Leyland tal...

THE ATHLETIC
About this episode

Starkville | MLB Hall of Fame Manager Jim Leyland joins us this week in Starkville. He talks about how special it was to be inducted into the HOF, his thoughts on the breaking news about Pete Rose being reinstated, what to make of the Pirates & Rockies firing their managers, his take on Rafael Devers refusing to play 1b, the hot start for the Tigers and much more.


Strange But True: A crazy triple play, that wasn't a triple play in the Nets-Mets game from April 25th. But that isn't the strangest part of the story...


Trivia: Question from John Pennylegion- Since the mound was lowered in 1968, 22 times the ERA leader has had an ERA lower than 2.00. Of those 22 times, four pitchers did it twice. Who are the four pitchers to lead their league with an ERA of less than 2.00 since 1968?"
