Peanuts & Cracker Jacks: A Baseball Podcast

Bat, Ball, and Glove

In this episode, Chris and Nasema talk through how a baseball player from the 19th century could still recognize the game being played today because not much has changed.

Episode 7: Mostly Mo

Chris & Naseema talk about the Cubs putting up some W's thanks to guys like Javy and Both, and all the injuries on the Yankees and how they managed to still be in second place. But mostly, this show is about Mo, the Sandman, Mariano Rivera. The first person to unanimously be voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame. It was his cutter, his enigma, his presence, the whole package made the Yankees say for nearly 20 years: gotta go to Mo.

Episode 6: Get That Bread

Chris & Naseema talk the start of the baseball season, as always the Yankees and the Cubs. But the record breaking contracts were the biggest talk of the offseason. Are giant contracts like Mike Trout's, Bryce Harper's and Manny Machado's good for baseball? No, but also yes, but maybe no. It's hard. Listen in and find out.

Episode 5 - Don't Break a Leg Out There

Naseema and Chris talk about the state of the Yankees and Cubs in a brief update, then some of the changes that have taken place over the past few years and why it took so long to make them. See if you can tell where we edited out f-bombs!

Episode 4: Dock Ellis Beyond The No-No

Last time Naseema and Chris talked about some of their favorite baseball movies, but wanted to take the time out to dive deep into the important No-No: A Dockumentary about the late great Dock Ellis. Famous for his LSD no-hitter, they take a look at Dock's legacy elsewhere in the sport. At the top of the spot, Naseema and Chris talk about the first week of the 2018 regular season.
