Believe or not, we'll try to avoid the hot air. Of course this podcast is still free-ee-ee. In a brand new episode of The Best Podcast in Baseball, brought to you by Closets by Design of St. Louis, St. Louis Post-Dispatch baseball writer Derrick Goold visits with C. Trent Rosecrans, Cincinnati Reds beat writer and baseball writer for The Athletic. The two explore where the Reds are a contender in the NL Central, what has gone awry with Joey Votto's season and what that means for first base at the All-Star Game, and discuss Rosecrans great adventure to see the major-league debut of Shed Long, an infielder with the Seattle Mariners. Rosecrans' podcast 'Great American Dream' set the bar for all baseball podcasts, and the result wasn't just a great story, a great example of audio storytelling, and a great advancement of baseball coverage -- but also a friendship. Rosecrans also nitpicks Goold's syntax and grammar, which is always fun. The Best Podcast in Baseball is a production of StlToday.com, The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and Derrick Goold.
