About this listen
Tonight’s episode of the Rounding Third Baseball Podcast is one of our most unique and fascinating shows yet. We kick things off with the latest MLB free agency news, break down the biggest rumors swirling around the league, and dive into what front offices might be planning next.
Then we welcomed a special guest, Michael Simpson, one of our longtime listeners, who brought an absolutely mind-blowing deep dive into the true origins of baseball.
From a reference to bat-and-ball games in a children’s book from 1744, to the founding of the Knickerbockers in 1845, Michael walked us through the evolution of the sport and how the original Knickerbocker Rules still influence today’s MLB rulebook.
We also mixed in trivia, historic nuggets, and some of our most fun conversations yet.
If you love MLB free agency, baseball history, or just want an episode that teaches, entertains, and keeps you laughing… this is the one.
