Coming up on Starkville, we'll talk about the life, the times, and the ejections of the late great Bobby Cox with Mark DeRosa, who played form with the Atlanta Braves, and now works for MLB Network.

We have an epic, strange but true segment, as always.

And Doug and I will kick around what we've learned about ABS in the first 40 games.

Thank you. what we've learned about ABS in the first 40 games. Greetings and welcome to Starkville.

I'm Jason Stark.

I read about baseball for the athletic.

And I am joined once again by my good friend, writer, substacker.

Yeah.

That guy who once got 1100 hits in the major leagues and our favorite voice of baseball on ESPN radio, Doug Glennville. Doug, how are you this week, my friend? I was trying to simulate like a bat sound since you mentioned to the hits. Maybe it's like, if I did, do that. Is that work? Okay, I don't know. Yeah, let's get our sound effects crew on this. Do you have one of those? I'll be more ready in next week with the sound text. But I'm doing great. I'm going to make sure we have one of those. I'll be more ready in next week.

But I'm doing great. I'm doing great, man. I actually didn't do the games for ESPN radio this past weekend.

And so regrouping. Obviously, I didn't take a red eye, so that's good. And now I'm, you know, getting ready for this weekend because we got the Mariners and going out to Seattle.

And it's a long trip, but it's a lot of fun there.

So, yeah, we're good.

Feeling good.

Feeling baseball.

Feeling it.

It's getting to be the thick of the season now.

We got a great show this week.

Longtime Atlanta Brave Mark DeRosa from MLB Network will join us to help us remember the life, the times, and the ejections of the late great Bobby Cox.

And of course, we have another epic, strange but true segment.

Oh, I can't wait for this one.

The first, Doug, I wrote a column this week on what we've learned from the first 40 games
