  • Flushing is Burning: RIP Billy Bean
    2024/09/20
    Grace is finally back again, and she gives a general apology and reason for her absence. She then delves into the last month of Mets baseball and how exciting it has been. The breakouts, the injuries, the fun, the drama, it's all here and centered in Flushing, baby! Next, she eulogizes the late, great Billy Bean, who was discussed in length just over a year ago on this very show. She talks about how less than a week after his death his absence was strongly felt in the Jarren Duran gay slur controversy. She discusses how clearly there is a voice missing from the discussion now and all sides are worse off because of it, but also maybe the league should care a little more? (They won't.) Finally, a double movie minute of two documentaries about famous queer men. One about an American hero who, evidence supports, loved men quite a bit. And the other about an American icon whose sexuality he was forced to suppress and hide to reach the heights of fame in the mid-20th century.

  • A Pod of Their Own, Episode 215: Asking the non-Francisco Lindor contingent to step it up
    2024/09/17
    Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we beg the Mets to find a way to get it done without Francisco Lindor, which seems like a very tall order right now for the offense. We also talk about Luisangel Acuña’s major league debut and some other injury updates; wouldn’t it be neat if Kodai Senga pitched in a game that mattered this season? Next, we talk about White Sox GM Chris Getz just putting up with the cards he’s been dealt…when he’s the dealer. We also shout out the Mets’ new COO hire Samantha Engelhardt. Our 2024 Dollars for Dingers campaign is underway and you can make a pledge using this Google spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1n2eZFl_nmzP4C83ccbb61Ggwz2r7m-kapJ6L0SXz4IU/edit?usp=sharing We also hope to see you on September 21st at EBBS at Citi Field at 1:30pm for our raffle event prior to the Mets game! Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.

  • A Pod of Their Own, Episode 214: Tylor Megill is inevitable
    2024/09/10
    Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin by discussing the incredible run the Mets went on in the past week, from which two things stood out: the incredible performance of the bullpen and Mark Vientos’ bat. It hasn’t been all sunshine and rainbows, though. Jeff McNeil is out for the year with a wrist fracture and Paul Blackburn was scratched tonight after being slated to return from the injured list, so we also cover those injuries. We also take a moment to remember Ed Kranepool, who passed away at the age of 79. Next, we talk about ESPN using generative AI to write recaps instead of hiring actual writers.

  • Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, Episode 174: Terrifyingly Meaningful Games in September
    2024/09/06
    Welcome to Today Your Love, Tomorrow the World Series, the new/old favorite from Chris McShane and Brian Salvatore. The Mets have won seven straight games and are (at the time of recording) a half-game back of the Braves for the third Wild Card spot. The Mets have a chance to establish their post-season chances by keeping up their excellent play as of late. Brian and Chris talk about optimizing the lineup, who they trust for big games in the rotation, and what their bullpen ranking looks like right now.

  • From Complex To Queens, Episode 285: 2024 Draft Debuts
    2024/09/05
    Welcome to From Complex to Queens, Home Run Applesauce’s podcast focusing on the Mets’ minor league system. This week, Steve, Ken, and Thomas, talk about players from the Mets' 2024 draft class who have already made their professional debuts. Small sample caveats aside, the performance of these players has largely been very good! Carson Benge has seemingly made some swing mechanic changes that bode well for his future as a professional, Eli Serrano is hitting for almost as much power in a few games as he did his entire collegiate season, and prep shortstop Trey Snyder surprised us all by being added to the St. Lucie Mets roster to begin with!

    2024/09/03
    Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we begin with the Mets getting the job done in the past week to get right back in the NL Wild Card race thanks to a little help from the Phillies as well. We also discuss the really strong performances from the starters of late, particularly Sean Manaea, the contributions of Jesse Winker, some injury updates, and more. Next, we talk about Women’s Equality Day, which was on August 26, and resulted in some wholesome highlights from throughout baseball.
