The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the amazing start to the World Series. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss the Phillies giving up 5 runs and then rebounding on Justin Verlander.  Tom notes the managing job being done by Rob Thomson and how he's taken such an aggressive approach through the playoffs. Find out which tendencies Thomson has gone against and still had his moves pay off.  Joe gives us insight around Nick Castellanos and explains his 'levels' of players.  We try to figure out what happened with Verlander and how his pitching approach changed during the game. Now the Astros try to rebound in Game 2 with Framber Valdez. We wrap up with Tom's choice of music for the World Series and Joe recommends a band that some consider a guilty pleasure.
The Book of Joe Podcast is a production of iHeart Radio.
