Summary
Barstool Sports presents the Starting 9, featuring Jared Carrabis and Dallas Braden - the baseball podcast everyone wants but no one else will give you. This week's first episode features an interview with astrophysicist Dr. Meredith Wills, who takes Dallas on a journey inside the baseball to discover what's different, why is it different, what we can expect moving forward and much more. Dallas and Jared also get into the signature news of the week - the Red Sox firing of Dave Dombrowski the season following winning the World Series, and the news that Javier Báez is out for the remainder of the regular season. The crew also does a “rundown” of the remaining “relevant” American League teams - Astros, Yankees, Twins, Indians, Athletics and Rays!
