This week’s guest is former Houston Astros utility infielder/outfielder and present Oakland Athletics player Tony Kemp. The conversation includes: assessment of the belated and pandemic-pressurised 2020 MLB season now underway and how players are coping, a warm look back at Kemp’s 4 years with the Astros organisation, looking at understanding the pressures of playing under such an analytical microscope, before switching to discuss Kemp’s +1 Effect movement seeking to educate people on the subject of racial prejudice and injustice, plus a focus on life as a Black player in MLB and assessing how well MLB are doing to help. Also, find out the winner of the competition for the Apollo ‘Be Someone’ mask based on Lance McCullers Jr.’s spaceman/World Series tattoo open to all Astros fans around the world!
