0:00.0 | I'm sorry. I know our posters say think differently, but our real slogan is no refund. |
0:06.9 | Good morning, and welcome to episode 208 of Effectively Wild, the Daily Podcast from Baseball |
0:13.1 | Perspectus. Thanks. It's good to be here. Yes. I am Vellanberg joined by Sam Miller |
0:19.3 | today's Wednesday, so it's the listener email show. I haven't really looked at the questions |
0:24.9 | since they came in the first time, but Sam has, I believe, and has curated the best ones, |
0:30.9 | and we had a ton this week. Incidentally, this is not something we've discussed. |
0:36.6 | No, I don't know. And then it's just intuitive that this is something I would guess. |
0:40.4 | Yes, I gathered from some emails that were sent earlier that you were reviewing them, at least. |
0:48.1 | And there were a lot this week, maybe the most ever. |
0:52.2 | Yeah, I think certainly the most ever. Well, thank you. People who emailed us. |
0:55.7 | Yeah, and it's with great sorrow that we won't answer all of them. I genuinely feel bad. |

1:22.6 | is too hit and nobody reaches third, but to pay for it is just wrong. So here's my idea. Double |
1:27.8 | the price of all tickets, let people choose to buy either a home ticket or in a way. If the corresponding |
1:33.9 | team loses, the ball club would refund or credit the entire price. No more post game, our club was |
1:40.3 | a little down today, but that's okay because you guys paid for it anyways, attitude for the team. |
1:45.4 | Now, I'm going to simplify this a little bit just for the second conversation. |
1:51.0 | Well, maybe we'll get to it. Maybe we'll add it back in, but the part about choosing to buy |
1:55.8 | either a home ticket or in a way ticket, I would like to put aside. I am absolutely in love with this |
2:02.7 | idea and I'm a little frustrated because I can't make it work. I don't think it's possible that |
