Listen "Who is to Blame for Batting Gloves?"
Episode Synopsis
This listener-requested topic spawned a podcast that burrows into several different rabbit holes, from how to grip the bat correctly to a discussion on the revenue-generating power of the batting-glove industry, to a Monet painting that was on display in The Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts in Little Rock, Arkansas. This journey into the logic -- and illogic -- of the grip that the batting-glove marketplace has on the hearts and minds of virtually every ballplayer from Little League to MLB is just a slice of the story you are about to hear.
