Crowding the Plate Podcast Episode 27: Division Series Previews

By Joe Hojnacki – Last Word On Baseball

After going over a couple manager related news and notes, Joe Hojnacki and Greg Hessen get down to what really matters, their Division Series previews. After a couple of dramatic Wild Card Games, the ALDS and NLDS are ready to get started. Tune in for Joe and Greg’s looks at the series and who they think will win.

Also, the breaks feature a couple of tributes to the great Vin Scully, who called his final game on Sunday as the San Francisco Giants kept the even year narrative alive and well by clinching a playoff spot.

Hosted by Joe Hojnacki and Greg Hessen, Crowding the Plate is a weekly baseball podcast here on Last Word on Sports. It aims to cover the fun, yet analytical, side of baseball once a week.

Joe Hojnacki writes about soccer for Last Word on Sports and is also co-host of the Crowding the Plate Podcast. An avid Red Sox fan, Joe idolizes Bryce Harper and feels that his fun showmanship is the way to save baseball from becoming overrun by old folks, and from dying out.

Greg Hessen is the resident Tigers fan on Crowding the Plate. As somewhat more of a traditionalist, Greg longs for the days of pitchers hitting in the American League and a landscape that doesn’t include things like bat flips and PEDs tarnishing the greatest of all games.
