Commissioner David Brauer sits down with us for a discussion about the past, present, and future of the Prospect League. We talk about current and possible future expansion balanced against continuing to improve the overall level of play, changes to league rules and scheduling, and Commissioner Brauer takes his turn on the Texas Pete Hotter Hot Sauce “Hotter Hot Seat,” where we get his spontaneous answers to five mystery questions about baseball and beyond!

S1 E7 – Interview with Ryan Kearney (O’Fallon Hoots Broadcaster)
TECHNICAL ISSUE Due to user error on Michael’s part, there was a bad echo in Ryan’s part of the audio. We cleaned it up about the best we could, but we will look at re-recording this episode to get a higher quality version. It sounds like we were interviewing him through the stadium PA microphone -phone -phone….
We talk with Ryan Kearney, broadcaster with the O’Fallon Hoots, about his first season with the team, the differences between gameday operations for baseball and hockey, and the best places to get food in The Windy City!
