The Book of Joe Podcast begins with the power of postseason pitching. Hosts Tom Verducci and World Series Champion Joe Maddon discuss batters hitting just .211 at the plate.  The Astros right handed pitching staff controlled the Yankees lineup and the breaking ball has been the star. Joe doesn't want to hear any revisionist history talk about the Astros roof being open or not, both teams are playing on the same field and this series is far from over. We explore how players are disciplined in the postseason and Joe recalls his experiences as manager.  Plus, which manager eats a root beer barrel before the start of every 9th inning? The Padres are back in their series with the Phillies and Joe loved the matchup between the Nola brothers. We wrap up with first car memories and how that car is always cool and you'll never forget what you paid for it.


The Book of Joe Podcast is a production of iHeart Radio.
