Starkvillians are known for their perseverance! Doug embodies our modus operandi as he navigates a crazy last seven days of baseball with Jayson from the shoulder of a Connecticut highway whose traffic is stagnant because of a jackknifing trailer. No matter the obstacle, Starkville persists! Speaking of persists, the dissent stemming from last out of game five from the Dodgers-Giants NLDS still persists. Why was Wilmer Flores called out on that check-swing call?! It shouldn't have happened! Jayson and Doug discuss ways MLB can handle a situation like this better. The voice of October baseball on TBS Brian Anderson provides his thoughts on the check swing, which he reacted to live from the broadcast booth. Jayson and Brian also kibbitz about the Dodgers-Braves NLCS as well as Brian's road to broadcasting on the national stage. A World Series MVP trivia question proceeds a pitcher-batting-in-the-postseason Strange But True!
