BASEBALL’S LAST RELIGION: The Church of the Unchosen
Episode 258
On today’s episode of Locked On A’s, we throw batting averages and box scores out the window and tap into what being an A’s fan is really about—grit, grind, and the unbreakable bond between a team and its believers. Host Booney rips the mask off the myth of polished baseball and reminds the world that the A’s aren’t a brand—they’re a belief. From the heartbreak of ownership apathy to the glory days under Walter Haas, this episode is a tribute to the loyal, the overlooked, and the unshakably proud. If you've ever been counted out, this one hits home.
Then we shift from raw emotion to raw talent, spotlighting Justin Sterner, the waiver-wire weapon who's quietly become one of the nastiest arms in the A’s bullpen. Booney takes a victory lap for calling Sterner’s breakout before spring training even hit full stride. And just like with Sterner, there's another name you need to know before the hype train leaves the station—Cole Conn. A 12th-round pick and switch-hitting catcher with a stat line that screams "watch me," Conn is kicking down doors in High-A with the kind of bat and leadership you can’t teach. This episode is a shot of truth, passion, and green-and-gold pride you won't hear anywhere else.
