Baseball Ready
This is where youth baseball gets real, real ugly, and real fun! We cover the home runs, the meltdowns, the balks, the walks, the pickles and everything in between. It’s for parents, coaches, kids, and umpires too… who all live at the ball field (or feel like you do). From throwing helmets and tantrums to using illegal bats and ineligible pitchers, we talk about the good, the bad, and the just plain silly. Topics include dugout drama, overzealous parents, late-night uniform hunts... we’ve lived it, laughed about it, and even cried about it. Charged at the gate to watch your kid play in a travel tournament you drove two hours to get to so you can see YOUR kid’s team get beat by players who were flown in from Latin America to pitch? We will rant about that too! Daddy ball? Oh, you betcha! We’ll share honest stories, hot takes, lots of guests, and maybe a few disagreements as well. Hosted by Russ Riba, a ”horrible” youth baseball coach, an ”awful” umpire, a ”mediocre” walk-up announcer, and a ”really bad” podcast host... but you decide.
