Ben Lindbergh and FanGraphs’ Ben Clemens dissect the fantastic sport through which Shohei Ohtani based the 50-50 and 51-51 Golf equipment, Ohtani’s most awe-inspiring feats, and his future, adopted (29:51) by banter concerning the state of defensive stats, the thriller of Salvador Perez’s swing selections, questionable kudos for Bud Black, whether or not Victor Robles made the worst steal try of all time, and MLB’s Gamers of the Recreation. Then (1:19:55) Ben talks to trailblazing journalist Melissa Ludtke, writer of Locker Room Speak: A Lady’s Battle to Get Inside, concerning the landmark Seventies Ludtke v. Kuhn case that opened MLB crew clubhouses to girls.
