Swing and a Miss

Episode 37 is here! We recap the opening weekend of the Women’s Pro Baseball League and what we saw from the start of a new era in professional baseball. Then it’s our League Check-In before handing out our winners and losers from the MLB trade deadline.

Plus, Avery Demands Answers, Ballpark Brews, trivia, and all the usual nonsense that somehow qualifies as a baseball podcast.

Grab a beer and join us!

The trade deadline is almost here, and baseball continues to make absolutely no sense. This week, we dive into the hottest teams, the biggest collapses, Zack Gelof's surprising breakout, the Marlins' historic free fall, and everything else that has us scratching our heads. Plus, we discuss the moves contenders need to make before the deadline and, as always, mix in plenty of laughs, debates, and bad takes.

Join us live from Wade Stadium, where we watch the Duluth Huskies take on the La Crosse Loggers!

We also welcome special guests Mike Rosenzweig, owner and GM of the Huskies, and Eric Welke of Bent Paddle Brewing.

Don't worry, we don't skimp on our normal segments of Avery Demands Answers, Ballpark Brews, or trivia.

Enjoy!

This week, we're playing General Manager.

With the trade deadline approaching, we take control of our favorite teams and make the moves we think could change the season, for better or worse.

Who should buy? Who should sell? Which stars should be moved? And what would you do if you were running your team's front office?

Send us your deadline deals, wild trade ideas, and GM masterplans. We may feature some of our favorites on a future episode.

Play GM with us on Episode 34 of Swing and a Miss.

We were fortunate enough to get time with Twins Broadcaster Cory Provus!

We go beyond the booth to talk about the preparation fans never see, the relationships that make baseball special, and the moments that have stuck with him throughout his career.

Along the way, we mix in plenty of laughs, a few stories you won't hear during a broadcast, and an honest look at what it's like to call 162 games a year while staying connected to the players, coaches, and fans.

Whether you're a die-hard Twins fan, a baseball junkie, or just curious about what goes on behind the microphone, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Enjoy!

This week, Swing and a Miss hit the road for a live show at Wandering Leaf Brewing Company! Join us as we talk the latest MLB storylines and enjoy some great beer with fellow baseball fans.  We may also have two voices not normally on the show!  Whether you're here for the baseball, the laughs, or just an excuse to spend an afternoon at a brewery, we've got you covered. Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and let's talk ball.

Episode 33 is on the turntable, and we're letting it spin. This week on Swing and a Miss, we cover the hottest stories from around Major League Baseball, spotlight the Pitcher of the Moment, crack open another Ballpark Brews review, and tackle a fresh round of baseball questions from Avery Demands Answers. From contenders heating up to teams already making their fans question every life decision they've ever made, nothing is off limits. So pour yourself a cold one, settle in, and join us for another week of baseball, banter, and bad decisions.

We sat down with Connor McKnight for a conversation that goes far beyond the broadcast booth.

From the realities of covering a Major League team every single day to the fan connection to the newest Pope, this interview covers a lot of ground.  

Enjoy!
