About Sources Tell Jeff Passan
Sources Tell Jeff Passan brings together the biggest names in baseball with the game's best reporter to tell the most important stories through the people that lived them. Just as accessible for the new fan as it is the one who has read Jeff Passan’s work for nearly a quarter-century, the show is a tour guide through the game’s vastness — the incredible individual accomplishments, the team successes, the inherent failures, the untold tales, the parallel joy and pain, and the love of the game all of it breeds. Baseball is a little weird, and this show is, too. If you want to understand the game — really understand it — this is the place.

He'd ask you how many guys you wanted him to strike out before the game started. I think he was only pitching five innings at that time. That was his max of what he was allowed to pitch in a game. He knew he had 15 outs. We'd always say, hey man, strike out 10. Let's see 10 punches tonight in your five innings. […]
