Ep. 22 — The rest of the interview has arrived! In part two of their chat with the former Tampa Bay Rays outfielder, Alex and Bobby shift away from strictly on-the-field questions and ask Fernando about poetry and his writing career post-baseball. Then they get his thoughts on why every sports network needs a podcast like Tipping Pitches, and chat about the weirdest traditions he’s seen around the game. Finally, they grill him on the age-old question: what do guys talk about when they get down to first base?
