Description

Sarah Langs is back for a return visit to Starkville. ESPN and MLB.com's stat and research guru announced last fall that she has ALS. She joins Jayson and Doug to discuss that part of her story, including her new initiative to raise money to battle the disease, but also some of the crazy things that are happening around baseball in 2023 that make it THE BEST.
Trivia (from Sarah): Name the 5 players who homered at 20 and 40 years old for the same team?
