This week, a lighthearted look at a Hall of Famer who spent four games demolishing one of Casey Stengel\u2019s early teams and then an extended discussion of a catcher and a pitcher who both had off-the-field habits that rendered them (or should have) unfit to play.
Trigger Warning: There is an extended discussion of domestic violence and sexual assault, in sometimes graphic terms, in this episode. \u201cCrazy Horse Intro\u201d by Groan Aderic-Agi.
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?
