It’s almost World Series time and the playoffs are still going on, so we’re going to talk a little ball today. Yep…that’s right…baseball.
Our guest is Jordan Skopp, who among other things is leading a fight to get rid of a longtime baseball rule that prevents fans who are injured by batted balls to receive compensation in court, no matter how badly they are hurt.
