I did have the opportunity to talk baseball with our guest, Dan Barry, columnist for the New York Times who wrote Bottom of the 33rd: Hope, Redemption, and Baseball's Longest Game. The book looks back at the players, fans, and media who were involved in the 33 inning game, 30 years ago,  between the Rochester Red Wings and the Pawtucket Red Sox, at the time the Triple-A affiliates of the Orioles and Red Sox. Dan and I discuss many of the famous players who took part in the game, including a pair of Hall of Famers.  We also discuss how the game shaped the future of the Pawtucket franchise as at the time of the game's conclusion, Major League Baseball was in the midst of a player's strike, brining heightened media attention to a little Rhode Island city which was feeding the baseball appetite of the country.

James Andrew Miller joins Ken Fang from Fang's Bites and I for the entire episode. Among the topics we discuss with Miller; the impetus behind his writing the book, some of the more interesting behind-the-scenes snipings, and why ESPN is so sensitive about how it is perceived by the outside world. We wish we had more time with Miller.  Neither Ken nor I were able to delve into all the topics we wanted to cover.  We plan on having Miller back to continue the discussion on a future podcast.   Sports Media Journal no http://sportsmediajournal.com/2008/01/18/smj-book-review-god-save-the-fan-will-leitch/ http://sportsmediajournal.com/2008/01/18/smj-book-review-god-save-the-fan-will-leitch/#comments Fri, 18 Jan 2008 22:51:17 +0000 Keith http://sportsmediajournal.com/2008/01/18/smj-book-review-god-save-the-fan-will-leitch/ http://sportsmediajournal.com/2008/01/18/smj-book-review-god-save-the-fan-will-leitch/feed/ 2
