Summary

He’s watched one movie per day for the last 30 years. He’s a germaphobe. He obsesses over the efficient use of his time. But when David Samson, the ex-president of the Miami Marlins, just last month, received the news of his daughter’s sudden illness, the life he meticulously engineered was upended forever. David sits down for a candid discussion about his failures as a father and his hopes for his daughter. Also: electing a commissioner; Giancarlo Stanton’s best home run; Jerry Reinsdorf’s “Happy Birthday”; the time Derek Jeter berated David across a Cooperstown souvenir shop; and oops, we forgot to tell Skipper he’s not on this episode.
