Who cares about the lockout when Brett Phillips is visiting Starkville to remind us all how much fun baseball is! He talks about how he's staying in shape (working out with local high school teams!) and reflects on his World Series walk-off hit, facing the Blue Jays as a pitcher and much more.

Plus Jayson and Doug do talk about the lockout and the progress that has been made. They brainstorm events for an MLB skills competition and try to stay hot in listener trivia.
