Episode description

Broadcasters Geoff Blum and Steve Sparks talk about the recent headlines surrounding the 2020 season. In Episode 22, they also tell us why the 22nd Manager in Astros History is the perfect person for the job. Making his 2nd appearance on Astro Pod since MLB’s March 12th announcement to halt play, Baker says he’s checking in with his players often. “Just to check on them and to see how their state of mind is and on their mental outlook and spirit, because that’s what you worry about. You don’t want their pilot light to go out and their spirit.” Baker reflects on his 19 year playing career and Managing x4 Big League clubs over 22 seasons. He talks about playing with legendary teammate Hank Aaron, facing J.R. Richard in the Astrodome and facing Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. How will Baker’s managerial style adjust during a possible short season? Find out now on Astro Pod. Pitch your thoughts as we field your questions #AstrosRadio @AstrosRadioMLB Learn more about your ad choices.
