Back to EpisodesEpisode 121: Banana Ball @ CarMax Park with Jackie Bradley Jr., Ben Dum, Bradford Webb & South Trimble
Description
Got to head out to CarMax Park for Banana Ball to kick off May! Got to chat with four players this time around, starting with Richmond's own Jackie Bradley Jr., the everyday outfielder for the Boston Red Sox through much of the 2010s (plus a 2016 All-Star and a Gold Glove winner, World Series champion and ALCS MVP in 2018). He became the first full-time former MLB player in Banana Ball when the Indianapolis Clowns took him in this year's draft.
Then, I chatted with VCU alums and current Firefighter pitchers Ben Dum and Bradford Webb, both of whom have now played Banana Ball at both The Diamond and CarMax Park. I also get to talk with South Trimble, a Virginia Beach native who won an A-10 baseball championship with George Mason in 2023.
