Welcome to The Moth. I'm Larry Rosen, and it's October.
It's time for sweaters, leaves turning, pumpkin spice, and perhaps,
most importantly if you're a baseball fan, the World Series.
Well, there's a lot to say about the series and about October, baseball in general.
This is why I am thrilled to be joined for this episode by a beloved Moth storyteller and my really good friend,
Manish Jain.
Manish has worked in baseball for 21 years as a producer,
writer, photographer and the host of several baseball themed podcasts.
Hello, Manish.
Hello, Larry.
Thanks for being here.
Thank you for having me.
I love you.
I love the moth.
I love baseball.
Let's go.
So you've always told me that October baseball is a complex experience.
What is that about?
October baseball is the best.
October baseball is the worst, especially if your team is in it.
