Baseball Schooled #2 – Opening Day

Welcome to the first episode of our new baseball podcast, Baseball Schooled. In our inaugural episode, James Gralian and Jay Vean talk about why baseball is so intriguing, and why James is trying to become a fan of the game. Baseball Schooled is starting off rough and ready, and is a work in progress. We wanted to get the first episode out for opening day. We are just getting our flow together, and are still working on intro and outro music, as well as the format of the show. And this website is going to update soon as well, with a lot less purple. We will be doing a meta episode where we talk about who we are, our backgrounds and our personal histories with baseball. Show notes: Texas Tech steals home to win – Via Jomboy: The end result of the September 11th, 2020 game that Jay talked about. Click here for the boxscore from the game.
