Show Notes
Guest: Mike Wilner, baseball columnist & host of Deep Left Field baseball podcast
For the first time in 32 years, the Blue Jays have a shot at winning the World Series, with Game 1 against the LA Dodgers happening tonight. It's been a long road to get here: waiting for conditions to be just right; to have the right players in place; for hard work and alchemy to strike that optimal balance.
Whether you've been paying attention to this team for years or just since the start of this crucial round of October playoff baseball, this episode has all the colourful context and fascinating anecdotes you'll need to get up to speed for the big game and the big series ahead.
Mike Wilner, former Blue Jays broadcaster, Toronto Star baseball columnist and host of baseball podcast Deep Left Field, is the guest on the show today to give you all that inside baseball knowledge before you tune in.
PLUS: Hero of the moment George Springer has an unsavoury baseball past - do you know about it? Mike Wilner weighs in.
