Description

The Baseball Barista with Hunter Pence and Grant Brisbee are here to serve you another fresh cup of baseball talk. They are gonna break down catchers needing more credit in no-hitters, old school style vs analytics and some #AskHunter questions. Catchers are sometimes the unsung heroes of no-hitters and deserve more credit. Sometimes it's not always the star catcher on the team that has a special connection with their pitcher. Hunter talks about the balance in the game of old school thinking vs analytics and how he would do if he was starting out now in the new analytics world of baseball. They get into some #ASKHUNTER questions and give predictions on the Dodgers-Padres series coming up this weekend.
