…Each episode of Foul Territory will feature exclusive interviews with current MLB stars, providing real, open conversations, showing off their authentic personalities and telling stories with those who can relate to their experiences. Over 30 MLB players, including All-Stars, Cy Young winners, Rookies of the Year and World Series Champions will join the show on a regular basis throughout the season and off-season.
…”Baseball has the best rivalries, storylines, and drama, so it’s time that we catch up to other leagues by giving fans closer access to those who play and have played the game at the highest level,” said Pierzynski. Frazier added, “Players want somewhere to tell it like it really is. Fans will get to see what makes players tick and hear their take on the game like never before. Can’t wait!”
As mentioned, the daily shows here will begin Wednesday at 11 a.m. Eastern.
Foul Territory can be found on YouTube here. An audio-only version of the show will also be available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other podcast platforms.
