Hitting It With The Hips

Wow, Mr. Hip really out here returning to baseball after 36 and celebrating his wedding anniversary and Mother’s Day with some swings at the Yellow Bolt Sports batting cage with Kat, the co-hostess with the mostest. They broke down the Beltway Classic beat down on Rivalry Weekend, checked in on their season predictions, share a timeless dynasty baseball resource, and drop their first weekly challenge for listeners to guess Kat and Donald’s walk up song. This episode was cool but they be mixing the personal with the baseball talk in a way that got me thinking.

Story-Time With Foster Griffin

This week of 4/20, baseball fans can catch every Orioles-affiliated team in action all in one week, a rare treat for anyone following the full organization. On the food front, we're recapping the vegan options at Nationals Stadium, including some thoughts on the best plant-based bites you can find at a ballpark. Over at Nats Kids Opening Day, the festivities doubled as a birthday celebration for mascot Screech, with pitcher Griffin bringing a special touch by reading a Charlie Brown Baseball story to our kids and they got to take home a copy of the book. The energy was also high thanks to the Mascot Chase, where our family had to hunt down Screech and snap a photo before the fourth inning, turning the time pressure into a really fun bonus activity for the kids. Episode Note: The Nat's Pitcher name is indeed Foster Griffin (not Forest, not Peter) LOL Recording by Donald and Kat Vincent + Marigold Music by DeShawn D'Vibes Alexander and Bryce Quinn Podcast edited by Bryce Quinn Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/hititwiththehips [https://www.instagram.com/hititwiththehips] Fam-Gram: https://www.instagram.com/itsthehips [https://www.instagram.com/itsthehips] Recording by Donald and Kat Vincent + Marigold Music by DeShawn D'Vibes Alexander and Bryce Quinn Podcast edited by Bryce Quinn

Love Meets the Long Ball and Road

We're back for season 2 to kick off the start of baseball season. After a long period of moving to the East Coast, we are back in a new town with new stories to share. We go over our season predictions and upcoming travel to mark another ballpark off our chase. Love meets the long ball, indeed. Episode Notes: Kat wanted to say Ben Rice's name another time. She mistakenly said his name for the Cy Young Award prediction the first time. BEN RICE! wooo.

Pup Day at Dodger Stadium

We check off Dodger stadium from our Ballpark Chase and the kids have an awesome time for pup day at the park. Then we break in a brand-new segment that swings for the fences: BASES LOADED. Then it’s rush-hour rivalries on the asphalt, dissecting every twist in the Freeway Series. And when the dust settles? We chase the whispers—trade rumors that could topple dynasties before the season’s halfway mark. Strap in: the line’s drawn, the engines are roaring, and nothing’s off the table.
