Summary

The Atlanta Braves are World Champions! So Tim Keown joins us from Houston, where he takes us through how the Braves got here.

Brian Windhorst explains why many think the new rules are changing the game for good, even if not everyone is happy about them. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
