Oxide and Friends

A Baseball Startup with Paul Freedman and Bryan Carmel


Listen Later

Bryan, Adam, Steve, and the Oxide Friends are joined by the founders of the Oakland Ballers, the continuation of a long history of baseball in Oakland. There turns out to be a plenty in common between founding a computer company and founding a baseball team--and we both have our fans supporting us!

In addition to Bryan Cantrill and Adam Leventhal, we were joined by very special guests Paul Freedman and Bryan Carmel as well our somewhat-special boss, Steve Tuck.

Some of the topics we hit on, in the order that we hit them:

  • The Oakland Ballers
  • Bryan and Adam at Manaea's no-no
  • The Munson-Nixon line
  • The Pioneer League
  • Baseball's longest game
  • Adam's neighbor, Bill George, scorer of the longest game
  • Yolo Highwheelers
  • BART's sponsorship of the Ballers
  • J.T. Snow joins the Ballers
  • J.T. saves Dusty's son

If we got something wrong or missed something, please file a PR! Our next show will likely be on Monday at 5p Pacific Time on our Discord server; stay tuned to our Mastodon feeds for details, or subscribe to this calendar. We'd love to have you join us, as we always love to hear from new speakers!
