Summary
The Book of Joe Podcast begins with hosts Tom Verducci and Joe Maddon seeing Spring Training get underway without Joe in a dugout! Newly retired Dexter Fowler joins us to talk about calling it a career and what's up next. Joe has always loved 'Glue Guys' and Dexter tops that list. Dexter reveals how he started switch hitting at the plate and how he got his 'not to great' break into the Major Leagues. We get 'A Reading from the Book of Joe' with Dexter picking page 24...which centers on Joe's relationship with his manager in college.
The Book of Joe Podcast is a production of iHeart Radio.
