This week’s guest is the radio voice of the Houston Astros, lead play-by-play announcer Robert Ford. The discussion covers: his views on the early talking points of the coronavirus-affected 2020 MLB season, including the injury risks to players with short preparation and an assessment of the start to the season made by the 2020 Astros. This is followed by an illuminating look at Ford’s radio career journey, through 7 years in the minor leagues to his 8th season in his role with the Astros, before an assessment of the lack of racial diversity in baseball commentary booths and what can be done to change this. Also, find out who has won the Apollo ‘H-Town Vs Everyone’ mask competition open to every Astros fan on the planet!
