0:00.0 | Welcome to the First Pitch Podcast, brought to you by Pitcherlist.com, your daily morning podcast, updating you on everything you need to know to win your fantasy baseball league. |
0:14.1 | Here's your host, Jake Crumpler. |
0:19.0 | What's up, Fantasy Managers? Welcome back to another episode of The First Bitch |
0:23.2 | Podcast brought to by pitcherless.com. My name is Jake Crumpler and I'll be your host for |
