Some stories are bigger than baseball. This week, we're honored to share one of them.

On this special episode of Swing and a Miss, we're joined by Bob Kendrick, President of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, one of the game's most passionate storytellers and tireless advocates for preserving baseball history.

From the extraordinary legacy of Buck O'Neil to the groundbreaking careers of Satchel Paige, Josh Gibson, and countless other legends, Bob takes us into a world of baseball history that deserves far more recognition than it has received.

We explore the importance of the Negro Leagues, the incredible talent and personalities who shaped them, and why preserving these stories isn't just about honoring the past—it's about understanding the game we love today.

But this conversation is about more than statistics, championships, and legendary ballplayers. It's about perseverance, opportunity, friendship, and the power of storytelling to ensure that generations of greatness are never forgotten.

Whether you're a lifelong baseball fan or just discovering the history of the Negro Leagues, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

Because baseball history isn't complete without Negro Leagues history.

Join us for an unforgettable conversation with Bob Kendrick, right here on Swing and a Miss.

EPISODE 42: THE FALL CLASSIC IS SET!

Two teams. Zero championships. One shot at baseball immortality.

The Milwaukee Brewers and Tampa Bay Rays are headed to the World Series, and somebody's finally bringing home their first title!

This week, we're recapping the ALCS and NLCS, breaking down the biggest moments, celebrating the heroes, roasting the disappointments, and making our World Series predictions.

Plus, we've got Ballpark Brews, Avery Demands Answers, World Series trivia, and the usual Swing and a Miss nonsense.

Thanks to our sponsors, Utepils Brewing and Pit Liquor!

Episode 42 is LIVE! October baseball doesn't get much better than this.

Episode 41 dives into the chaos of the MLB postseason, starting with a Braves–Phillies Wild Card Series that had everything: late-inning bombs, blown leads, bullpen-induced heart attacks, and Austin Riley doing Austin Riley things when Atlanta needed him most.

We break down the biggest moments from the Wild Card round, check in on the rest of the playoff picture, hand out some extremely serious and definitely well-researched opinions, and try to figure out which teams actually look built to survive October.

Plus, we’ve got Ballpark Brews, Avery Demands Answers, trivia, and all the usual nonsense that somehow keeps this baseball podcast on the rails.

October has arrived.

And so has the stress.
