The Major League Baseball lockout will continue on, leaving fans scrambling for ways to get their baseball fix.
The first two series of the upcoming season have been canceled as a result of the lockout, and it's unclear when a resolution will be found or if more games will need to be axed.
Until then, here are five podcasts that can satisfy your baseball craving, all of which can be found on the Audacy app.
News
Baseball Tonight With Buster Olney
Olney hosts a regular podcast covering news around MLB, featuring not only his own insight, but also that of other ESPN baseball insiders. When news breaks regarding the lockout, this podcast is a good place to go for all the details you'll need.
Player Perspective
R2C2 with CC Sabathia and Ryan Ruocco
While this pod, hosted by longtime MLB pitcher CC Sabathia, occasionally ventures into other sports, it's baseball-heavy, released weekly (even during the lockout) and gets some great guests. This year alone, Jon Lester, Adam Wainwright, Aaron Judge, Cameron Maybin and Sonny Gray have been on it, as well as media figures like Jeff Passan and Joe Buck.
Baseball Today
During the season, this podcast runs pretty much every day. While it doesn't have the same regularity right now, you can bank on it twice a week. Hosted by Chris Rose and former big leaguer Trevor Plouff, this podcast analyzes current MLB news from the viewpoint of someone who recently was in the thick of it all. A bonus if you're short on time: these episodes usually are 20 minutes or less.
Investigation
The Edge: Houston Astros
Hosted by Ben Reiter, this documentary podcast investigates the Houston Astros' cheating scandal in 2017. Featuring original interviews and behind the scenes insights, this podcast is a great look into one of the sport's biggest cheating scandals.
Retrospective
The Run - 2016 Chicago Cubs
Not only was the Cubs' 2016 playoff run memorable because of the streak it snapped, but also because of how captivating most every postseason game was. "The Run" looks at how the Cubs ended their World Series droughts, plus interviews with Cubs legends and some of team's celebrity superfans.
