Does Stefan Caray's style come from great grandfather Harry Caray?  No

Does he sound like grandfather Skip?  Not exactly

More like Dad Chip?  Kinda sorta

Stefan Caray is no nepo baby.  He's his own man carving out his own niche, bringing his unique style to every broadcast.  He is the future of baseball broadcasting, with a tip of the hat to the past.  His youthful energy mixes with his old soul to bring a refreshingly authentic sound to every game.

And he brings all of that to this refreshingly honest and hilarious episode of The Approach Shot, presented by Fan Duel.

When you grow up in Sacramento and play college ball in L.A; you don't exactly dream of playing in cold weather, in a city that is the quintessential "small market". But the warmth GEOFF JENKINS felt (and still feels) from the Milwaukee Brewers organization is enough to keep the fire lit. Named to the Brewers Wall of Honor, Geoff had the 4th most home runs in Brewers history, only behind Robin Yount, Ryan Braun and Prince Fielder.

You know how they say everything is better in Texas?  Well, at 6'6", 338 FLOZELL ADAMS had the SIZE to be one of the greatest offensive lineman of his time.  But it's not JUST the size that worked.  He always had a plan, whether it was to knock the defender on his rear end, or to finesse his opponent, "Flo" reveals his secret to success- listening!

This episode isn't just power and performance; far from it.  Flo is hilarious, and I mean genuinely funny, insightful and just uniquely Flozell Adams.  This episode is the reason you listen to podcasts in the first place.

Bryce Paup's toughness comes from his years of being looked over, played at the wrong position and then BAM! everything clicked.  But don't think he just fell into the right situation.  His toughness comes from the right attitude, work ethic and doing the right thing over and over again.  He'd call himself "old school" if old school means "you reap what you sew."

Sure, he has a great sense of humor, and is a proud, protective Dad.  And he sure loves to talk about golf, even if his game is a work in progress.

Strap on your pads, cause this hard hitting episode is an absolute blast!
