Speaker 3 (03:44):
Yeah, we go in deep with Oh, g Mark Gray.
Speaker 6 (03:49):
Actor James Earl Jones was the ultimate Black baseball voice
of a lifetime hits Your Boy the MLB O G
Mark Gray and I'm Going.
Speaker 7 (03:57):
Deep for the mixtape.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
Before he was the voice of Darth Vader and Star Wars,
and the commanding presence of CNN. James Earl Jones earned
a unique place in baseball. Lord Jones played two dynamic
roles in movies about the game, where his voice was
always resounded in a way that often overshadowed the rest
of the members of his cast. In the nineteen seventy
six Negro League parody Bengo Long Traveling All Stars and
(04:21):
Motor Kings, Jones played Leon Carter with a cast that
included the likes of Richard Pryor and Billy D.
Speaker 7 (04:28):
Williams. Paul Leers got it Overthloyd the owners and run
the teams they own?
Speaker 4 (04:32):
Sale.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Do you think we can do that? Overthrow the owner?
Speaker 2 (04:39):
For sure, same David jury White.
Speaker 6 (04:43):
However, it was his role that was called a cantankerous
fictitious author named Terence Mann, who delivered a soliloqually near
the end of the film Field of Dreams, which has
become a theme for baseball since those lyrics first dropped
in nineteen eight nine.
Speaker 7 (05:00):
The one constant through all the years, Ray, it's been
baseball America has ruled by like an army of steam rulers.
It's been erased like a blackboard rebuilt and it rased
a gay. But baseball has marked the time, this field,
(05:21):
this game, It's a part of our past.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Ray.
Speaker 7 (05:26):
It reminds us of all that once was good.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Nicok b a K.
Speaker 6 (05:33):
James Old Jones passed away on September the ninth, twenty
twenty four, after earning egot status. Is one of the
few actors to win an Emmy, a Tony, an Oscar,
and a Grammy throughout his illustrious career. Rest in peace, Change,
I'm the m O p O. G. Mark Gray and
I'm going t for the mixtape.
Speaker 8 (06:00):
All other postseasons right around the corner, it's hard to
not scream playoffs. Yes, we're talking about playoffs. It's critical
to find the right time to get on the hot
streak instead of looking ahead. This weekend is full of
playoff caliber series that's show you as battle test already.
The Detroit Tigers are facing the Baltimore Orioles. Detroit with
this stellar ball pion fins themselves three games behind the
(06:21):
Minnesota Twins for this final playoff spot. The Tigers very
well plays up to their competition with wins over the
top teams in the league. May be a sleeper team
going into postseason, but the Orioles are one of the
best slugging teams in the Major League, second highest in
team home runs in the MLB, right behind the New
York Yankees. It's going to be a tough series when
(06:41):
the team is clicking on all cylinders. Cedric Mullins kicking
it into third gear with his efforts in the last
seven games, blitchering out some phenomenal numbers twenty one at bats,
seven hits, three runs, three home runs, four RBI, two
celling bases with a three to thirty three bad average
rank number one for cenated fielders in the fielding percentage
must be on a mission because he's playing phenomenal Baseball label.
(07:04):
But it's a very exciting quest to see if the
Tigers can find the sales in the postseason. The last
sound of Tigers made playoffs, the team was swept in
the League Division Series versus the Baltimore Orioles in twenty
fourth seens.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
As we will be serving it up all season long
right here.
Speaker 8 (07:20):
On MLB Bros Podcast, I'm Devine Cook, Stay hungry.
Speaker 2 (07:27):
What's up everybody?
Speaker 9 (07:28):
This is justin PATRULEU with the Blackie support on the
MLB bro Show podcast mixtape. Here's where you get the
latest of the melanated mount Marauders who're showing with precision
and popping out all.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
Across the big leagues. So let's check the report.
Speaker 9 (07:41):
Marcus Strouman is known to be a ferocious pitcher, but
he was just recognized for sructive dots Bigger than Baseball.
On September eleventh, it was announced that Strouman would be
nominated as the Yankees finalist for the Roberto Comente Award,
the award given alely to a player who displays the
values of helping others in their community. Stroman is the
of the Hype Doesn't Measure Heart Foundation, which helps in
(08:03):
need youth to rise about their circumstances. He bounded it
in twenty eighteen and to this day it's helped nearly
one thousand utes and provided around three hundred thousand meals.
A big congratulations to Strowman and the rest of the
people who help with the foundation.
Speaker 4 (08:18):
Yeah, he's talking about the black aces in all the
places on the MLB Brocho podcast, the mixtapes the Black
a support goes on the street.
Speaker 2 (08:25):
Some well known like the numbers Man.
Speaker 5 (08:28):
Cedric Mullins has been one of the most reliable and
consistent cornerstones of the Orioles return to the top in
recent seasons, as he is still performing at the highest
level in all facets of the game. His one O
eight raider runs created plus is more than enough for
a player of his defensive caliber, and Mulls' production at
the plate has been consistent for the past three seasons,
(08:50):
with him matching that one OW eight total in twenty
twenty two. Mullins also has notched five outsu of average
this year in center field, being one of the Orioles
stand and down defensive players in one of the most
premier defensive positions. A two point five base running run
value above average in addition to his offensive and defensive
success makes Mullens one of the most well rounded players
(09:12):
in all of baseball. His two point three fangrass war
total is more than respectable, and he's approaching the second
twenty home run and twenty stole in base season of
his career. With games ramping up in importance at Baltimore,
Moans will be one of their biggest impact players as
the season progresses.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Line drives hard hitting.
Speaker 10 (09:32):
That's what I think of when I hear two certain
names from the seventies and eighties, one righty hitter, one
lefty hitter. There were even teammates for a handful of
years with the Pittsburgh Pirates. They made their major league
debut two days apart in nineteen seventy three and played
their last regular season game on the same day fourteen
(09:53):
years later, in nineteen eighty seven. I'm talking about Bill
Medlock and Mike Easler.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
Bill Medlock he.
Speaker 10 (10:00):
Made his debut as a twenty two year old with
the Texas Rangers on September seventh, and he hit very
well three fifty one that month, but he was traded
to the Chicago Cubs in a deal that involved fellow
bro and future Hall of Famer Ferguson Jenkins. He didn't
disappoint the Cubs. In nineteen seventy four, he hit three
thirteen in his first full big league season. Two days earlier,
(10:24):
Michael Anthony Easler, he came up with the Texas Rangers.
He talked about a late bloomer or a slow starter.
Easler is a perfect example. He didn't have his first
extra base hit until nineteen seventy six, when he was
with the California Angels.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
He did take him a while to get untracked Madlock.
Speaker 10 (10:43):
He was getting it done from the beginning, back to
back National League Batting championships for the Cubs in nineteen
seventy five and seventy six as a third baseman with
averages of three fifty four and three thirty nine. Traded
to the Giants before the nineteen seventy seven season, he
hit three h two and three oh nine.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
The man could hit.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Let's talk about these guys as Pittsburgh pirates. Easler.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
He was still very much a role player in nineteen
seventy nine, but he proved to be too valuable to
not be on the postseason roster. World Champions We are family.
All of that he was part of it. A midseason
trade is what brought Madlock to the family that year,
and he hit three seventy five in that seven game
World Series win over Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Madlock he would go on to win two more.
Speaker 10 (11:34):
Batting titles with Pittsburgh in the early eighties, including a
three forty one average in nineteen eighty one. He was
joined by Easler on the National League All Star Team
that year, and for Easler that would be his only
All Star appearance. Easler had perhaps his best season in
nineteen eighty four with the Boston Red Soize. The lefty
(11:54):
hitter hit twenty seven homers, drove in ninety one runs,
and finished the season with a thirteen batting average.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
He would finish up his career strong with the Phillies
and Yankees.
Speaker 10 (12:05):
Madlock he would see the postseason twice more in his career,
once with the Dodgers and lastly with the Tigers.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Easler.
Speaker 10 (12:13):
He delivered a ninth inning single in his final at
bat on October fourth, nineteen eighty seven. He had a
good career and finished with a two ninety three lifetime
batting average. Madlock he won the Batting Crown four times
in his career. That's the most any player has won
who is not in Trienton Cooper's Town, Mad Dog and
(12:34):
the Hitman. Quite a combo, and it ran from nineteen
seventy three to nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Ryan, keep firing, You're really the best bet roster.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Imer back at you.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
Let's bounce back this week forty four and seventeen on
the year. Let's kid it our FIRENDT Mitchel Tasay is
a Detroit, Michigan America Park Friday where we have the
Baltimore Orels versus Detroit Tigers. As continue as good play
in September with ten hits in twenty six at Backs,
two home runs and six to RBIs Friday glyph for
(13:08):
Zach ef flyin the bounce back after rough outing last
week and have a good performance as the Orioles fly
by the Tigers.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Ryan, keep firing.
Speaker 11 (13:18):
Our next matchup takes us to Phoenix, Arizona Saturday, Chase Field,
where we have the Milwaukee Brewers versus the Arizona Diamondbacks Bros.
Josh Ball hundred thirty seven games, hundred twenty eight hits.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
The man gets it done.
Speaker 11 (13:33):
Having a good season for the d backs late in
the year could be a good push for them going
into the playoffs. But in and I think the d
Bats take care of business as they.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Win on Saturday, Ryan, keep firing.
Speaker 11 (13:47):
Our last matchup takes us Seattle, Washington Sunday Tea Mobile
Park where we have the Texas Rangers versus Seattle Marriers.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Bro JP Crawford back in the line up.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
Seattle's trying to make a push Sunday could be a
close one. I think the Manners are too much at
home as they take care of business and win on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Ryan, keep firing. You're really the best bet. Now back
to the mix.

Easler is a perfect example. He didn't have his first
extra base hit until nineteen seventy six, when he was
with the California Angels.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
He did take him a while to get untracked Madlock.
Speaker 10 (10:43):
He was getting it done from the beginning, back to
back National League Batting championships for the Cubs in nineteen
seventy five and seventy six as a third baseman with
averages of three fifty four and three thirty nine. Traded
to the Giants before the nineteen seventy seven season, he
hit three h two and three oh nine.
Speaker 4 (11:03):
The man could hit.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Let's talk about these guys as Pittsburgh pirates. Easler.
Speaker 10 (11:10):
He was still very much a role player in nineteen
seventy nine, but he proved to be too valuable to
not be on the postseason roster. World Champions We are family.
All of that he was part of it. A midseason
trade is what brought Madlock to the family that year,
and he hit three seventy five in that seven game
World Series win over Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Madlock he would go on to win two more.
Speaker 10 (11:34):
Batting titles with Pittsburgh in the early eighties, including a
three forty one average in nineteen eighty one. He was
joined by Easler on the National League All Star Team
that year, and for Easler that would be his only
All Star appearance. Easler had perhaps his best season in
nineteen eighty four with the Boston Red Soize. The lefty
(11:54):
hitter hit twenty seven homers, drove in ninety one runs,
and finished the season with a thirteen batting average.
Speaker 2 (12:02):
He would finish up his career strong with the Phillies
and Yankees.
Speaker 10 (12:05):
Madlock he would see the postseason twice more in his career,
once with the Dodgers and lastly with the Tigers.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
Easler.
Speaker 10 (12:13):
He delivered a ninth inning single in his final at
bat on October fourth, nineteen eighty seven. He had a
good career and finished with a two ninety three lifetime
batting average. Madlock he won the Batting Crown four times
in his career. That's the most any player has won
who is not in Trienton Cooper's Town, Mad Dog and
(12:34):
the Hitman. Quite a combo, and it ran from nineteen
seventy three to nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 3 (12:40):
Ryan, keep firing, You're really the best bet roster.
Speaker 5 (12:44):
Imer back at you.
Speaker 11 (12:45):
Let's bounce back this week forty four and seventeen on
the year. Let's kid it our FIRENDT Mitchel Tasay is
a Detroit, Michigan America Park Friday where we have the
Baltimore Orels versus Detroit Tigers. As continue as good play

two home runs and six to RBIs Friday glyph for
(13:08):
Zach ef flyin the bounce back after rough outing last

by the Tigers.
Speaker 3 (13:16):
Ryan, keep firing.
Speaker 11 (13:18):
Our next matchup takes us to Phoenix, Arizona Saturday, Chase Field,
where we have the Milwaukee Brewers versus the Arizona Diamondbacks Bros.
Josh Ball hundred thirty seven games, hundred twenty eight hits.
Speaker 2 (13:31):
The man gets it done.
Speaker 11 (13:33):
Having a good season for the d backs late in
the year could be a good push for them going
into the playoffs. But in and I think the d
Bats take care of business as they.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
Win on Saturday, Ryan, keep firing.
Speaker 11 (13:47):
Our last matchup takes us Seattle, Washington Sunday Tea Mobile
Park where we have the Texas Rangers versus Seattle Marriers.
Speaker 3 (13:54):
Bro JP Crawford back in the line up.
Speaker 11 (13:56):
Seattle's trying to make a push Sunday could be a
close one. I think the Manners are too much at
home as they take care of business and win on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (14:05):
Ryan, keep firing. You're really the best bet. Now back
to the mix.
