PRODcast 47: Tom Glavine's Teenaged DADHAT Affliction
Productive Outs
The Prodcast

This is normally where I wax about how great the show is, but I can’t lie to you: this show is terrible. Like,. the worst we’ve ever done. I wouldn’t even listen if I were you.

KIDDING! It’s awesome. Carson Cistulli was great. The Wonder Years were great. Riley and Ian were pretty good. The theme song is still the theme song. We’re going to re-do that one of these days. 

Here’s the AgenDERP:

  • Intro
  • Emails from people whose balls are being tripped
  • We subject Carson Cistulli to a heavily modified Proust Questionnaire
  • The Wonder Years (the band) is discussed
  • Baseball is discussed as well
  1. The Angels are awful
  2. The Orioles kind of are too, maybe
  3. The Cardinals totally are NOT 
  4. Nor are the Indians, at least for the moment, although Chief Wahoo is
  5. Sanabia, Schmanabia
  • Outro 

All non-theme-songs are played by The Wonder Years from their new album, The Greatest Generation. Used without permission. Please don’t sue us.

Zoom Orioles playoff odds as of this writing, according to the Baseball Prospectus super-computer: 77.6%, the highest mark of the year. Look at that orange line! It’s like the elevation profile of a Tour de France stage.  Go O’s!

Zoom My token Orioles-fan friend Peter (site might not be safe for work, has boobs and stuff!) sent along this picture from last night’s Orioles-Red Sox affair. The look on Matt Wieters’ face is priceless. It’s almost as though he KNEW the O’s would prevail in 17 and that Chris Davis would be the winning pitcher.

Two musicians who love baseball, but don't take it too seriously.
