Asians In Baseball

Episode 39: Welcome to the Second Half

05 Aug 2023

Description

We’re officially in the second half of the MLB season, and the race to the postseason is ON.  1:21 - The Trade Deadline has come and gone! We’re stoked for more Asians in the NL West but sad to see some of our faves get DFA’d.  17:53 - Bats are staying hot for our position players! Macho Man’s slump is broken after chatting with Ichiro, Lars Nootbaar is on fire right now, Kim Ha Seong is “the best player on the team,” IKF celebrates not getting traded, and we welcome Alika Williams to the Asians in Baseball Cinematic Universe.  42:16 - Lots going on in pitching this week: Ryu Hyun Jin is back for his first start of the season, Shintaro Fujinami gets a bit knocked around but is still faring quite well as of late, Dane Dunning remains dominant, and Sean Manaea gets his first ever save.  54:07 - OHTANI TALK: the most anticipated trade in baseball did NOT go down by August 1st, but Ohtani made sure we still had much to discuss this week. His contributions in the double header against the Tigers were truly next level, we discuss the possibility of the triple crown, and we at Asians in Baseball have some fighting words for managers who intent walk him.  Check out the Cardinals’ AAPI Heritage Night Lars x Tommy WBC Bobble Head! https://www.mlb.com/cardinals/tickets/specials/theme-tickets/asian-american-pacific-islander-heritage
