Baseball and softball are sports that continue to attract new viewers both professionally and collegiately. This past weekend, I had the opportunity to talk to the VP of Bruce Bolt and the GM of the Atlanta Smoke (Professional Softball League-PSL), Eric Mays. Bruce Bolt recently sponsored a college, baseball classic (tournament) in Houston, TX at Daikin Park. With athletic gear that assists players on the field to perform at their best while also guiding professional softball, Eric Mays discusses how both of these are essential at leading our young people and the sport forward and how we can be prepared for what's to come regarding both equipment and play on the field.

The time is almost here...THE 2026 WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC! This is one of the most exciting times that baseball fans will experience, and I want to make sure that you are covered in knowing which teams will be playing in which pools, who is projected to win the pools and be runner-ups, and who will ultimately take home the title of the World Baseball Classic Champion. 2026 is set to be even more exciting than 2023, and I cannot wait to experience this moment with you. I also have some college softball and baseball updates because the seasons are starting off in ways that have already left fans breathless. Ultimately, baseball and softball are underway in 2026, and 10th Inning Talk has covered all bases to keep you ready for each moment.

Last year at the HBCU Classic, I had the pleasure of meeting two people who were happily cheering on their sons. I had a great conversation with them while also meeting their two sons, Paxton and Peyton, who played on opposing teams during the classic tournament. As they continue their collegiate journey as student-athletes, I had a discussion with both about their journey in college, what motivates/inspires them, and what they expect for the upcoming 2026 season. It's always special when we get to experience brothers play a sport that they love. It's even more special when they play competitively on opposite teams, ESPECIALLY in the sport of baseball. Tune in and learn more about Paxton and Peyton Huff as they join the 10th Inning.

We are all familiar with College Baseball, Major League Baseball, the Winter Leagues, and even the upcoming World Baseball Classic. However, there are some people who take their baseball talents and play overseas. Troy Justice joins the 10th Inning to discuss how he learned about overseas ball, how he's adapted, and how others can join in on this incredible experience in different parts of the world. This is great episode where you learn how your dream can be extended outside of the U.S.

The 10th Inning is BACK and ready to talk all things baseball and softball for the 2026 year. This year, I am incorporating new leagues (WPBL and PSL). I am also elaborating more on the AUSL. Where will they be playing this year as they now have home cities? What is the PSL (Professional Softball League) and where exactly are these teams located? I cannot leave out MLB and the free agency period as it has been heating up. I also have a different take on the Kyle Tucker move that I have not seen out there yet. Join the 10th Inning and find out all about what's happening in the baseball and softball world this episode.

Micaela Minner joined the 10th Inning to discuss her collegiate journey, her life and career after college, how she has remained ready for her moment with the WPBL, and what a Women's Professional Baseball League ultimately means to her, young girls, and the rest of the world. This was so refreshing and enlightening. I am so excited to share this episode with you, so prepare for a great moment in the 10th Inning.

Recently, Mo'ne Davis was drafted by the Women's Professional Baseball League (WPBL)-Los Angeles team. She joins the 10th Inning to discuss what led to her deciding to pursue this historical opportunity, what she has done since her infamous time in Little League World Series, what we can expect from her moving forward, who is Mo'ne presently. Lock in and learn more about Mo'ne in the 10th Inning. (This was a live broadcast.)

On Thursday, November 20th, history was officially made with the inaugural WPBL (Women's Professional Baseball League) Draft. Join the 10th Inning as I discuss some of the ladies who are drafted, the first four teams of the league, and the location the first year of the WPBL. The AUSL will also be having their Expansion Draft VERY soon. Learn when that is, how the draft is going to go, who the new expansion teams are, and why this particular draft is more interesting than drafts in other team sports. Welcome to the 10th Inning!
