Baseball PhD (enhanced M4A)

Oops they did it again… The Dodgers win the 121st World Series against a very good Blue Jays team. How good was the Series? We debate and marvel.

O Canada, the Blue Jays have won Game 1. We discuss the Series along with gambling and the integrity of the game we love.

The Dodgers have advanced to the World Series after an epic performance by Shohei Ohtani. The Blue Jays and Mariners are still fighting for the American League Pennant. We discuss and debate as we marvel at the performance of Shohei Ohtani. Is Ohtani better than Ruth?

Congratulations to the Blue Jays, Mariners, Dodgers and Brewers for advancing to their League Championship Series. We enjoy and comment.

Congratulations to the Yankees, Tigers, Dodgers and Cubs for winning their Wild Card Series and advancing to the Division Series. Ed and Farley review and look ahead to the Division Series.

This week we honor the man who inspired the creation of Baseball PhD – Moe Berg (1902 – 1972).  Moe Berg got his PhD in life – through baseball.  Berg spoke 12 languages travelled the world, played in the major leagues and served as America’s foremost atomic spy during World War II.  Berg knew about the existence of America’s atomic bomb before President Truman!  Discover his story as Ralph Berger, Louis Jacobson, Chuck Brodsky, Linda McCarthy and our PhD Committee remember Moe Berg.

The Phillies were the first team to win their division and are on track to clinch a playoff first round bye. We review and analyze which teams have the hardest road to the playoffs.

Ed & Farley interview Dave Berger about his new book, Take Me Out to the Ballgame, a book that highlights comical and freakish injuries that you cannot make up!

Playing below .500 and playing outside, 2025 has been a so so year for the Rays. Ed Kasputis shares about his recent Tampa roadtrip while he interviews Louis Schiff about the Baseball Karen incident at Marlins Park on September 5.
