Infinite Inning 300: I See My Light Come Shining

  • サマリー

  • This anniversary episode brings a fresh look at some of the themes that have obsessed us since the show began back in 2017, specifically humanity, empathy, and the replacement level. We revisit Joe McCarthy and Slim Jones’ pain and the former’s Hall of Fame induction, Heinie Mueller’s basepath errors, Oscar Grimes’ fielding miscues, Theodore Roosevelt’s “Fear God and Take Your Own Part” and how it contrasts to the current demonization of a helpless minority, another Cuban great who never got to play in the US, and it all comes full circle at the end.

    The Infinite Inning is not only about baseball but a state of mind. Steven Goldman discusses the game’s present, past, and future with forays outside the foul lines to the culture at large. Expect stats, anecdotes, digressions, explorations of writing and fandom, and more Casey Stengel quotations than you thought possible. Along the way, they’ll try to solve the puzzle that is the Infinite Inning: How do you find the joy in life when you can’t get anybody out?
