Author and New York Times national baseball columnist Tyler Kepner joins a brand new Best Podcast in Baseball to discuss an April without baseball and his book, "K: A History of Baseball in Ten Pitches," which is now available in paperback. With host Derrick Goold, baseball writer at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Kepner -- joining the podcast from a socially approved social distancing distance, all the way in Connecticut -- discusses his favorite pitch, its master, the curveball, its master, and how it's about time the National Baseball Hall of Fame found some way to honor some of the best coaches. The two baseball writers spin yarns about pitch legends, examine the Reds' approach to pitching, and talk about the questions facing baseball during a global pandemic, when there are bigger things than a baseball stoppage but baseball could still play a part in the culture. It can provide stories -- that we tall when self-isolating with family. Please forgive the audio quality as this podcast was pieced together with the technology on hand, and it will improve for subsequent episodes. The Best Podcast in Baseball is brought to by Closets by Design. The podcast is a production of The St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
