b'The Infinite Inning is not only about baseball but a state of mind. Steven Goldman, rotating cohosts Jesse Spector, Cliff Corcoran, and David Roth, and occasional guests discuss the game\\u2019s present, past, and future with forays outside the foul lines to the culture at large. Expect stats, anecdotes, digressions, explorations of writing and fandom, and more Casey Stengel quotations than you thought possible. Along the way, they\\u2019ll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can\\u2019t get anybody out?

The most topical episode of the Infinite Inning\\u2019s brief run features visits from veteran baseball writer Jon Heyman and cohost Jesse Spector. With his finger on the pulse of the trade market, Heyman shares his sense of which teams will be adding at the deadline and talks a bit about his method, while Jesse mourns the momentary loss of Mike Trout and deplores head-hunting pitchers, or in Hunter Strickland\\u2019s case, butt-hunting. Steve\\u2019s intro features a personal encounter with a lost utility infielder and a visit with Snooks Dowd, the fastest player no one wanted.'
