The 2026 MLB season is officially in the books, and we're putting a bow on October before turning up the heat on the offseason!
In Episode 43 of Swing and a Miss, we're breaking down the Milwaukee Brewers' historic first World Series championship over the Tampa Bay Rays. From William Contreras taking home World Series MVP honors to the pitching performances that defined the Fall Classic, we're digging into the numbers, the biggest moments, and the players who made the difference.
Then we're turning our attention to the offseason. Which teams are ready to spend? Who needs a complete overhaul? And what moves could reshape the league before Opening Day 2027?
Plus, we're testing the guys' baseball knowledge with World Series Firsts trivia, bringing back your favorite segments, and delivering all the questionable predictions and completely unsolicited opinions you've come to expect.
The World Series may be over, but baseball never really stops.

Keeping the Legends Alive: An Interview with Bob Kendrick
Some stories are bigger than baseball. This week, we're honored to share one of them.
On this special episode of Swing and a Miss, we're joined by Bob Kendrick, President of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, one of the game's most passionate storytellers and tireless advocates for preserving baseball history.
From the extraordinary legacy of Buck O'Neil to the groundbreaking careers of Satchel Paige, Josh Gibson, and countless other legends, Bob takes us into a world of baseball history that deserves far more recognition than it has received.
We explore the importance of the Negro Leagues, the incredible talent and personalities who shaped them, and why preserving these stories isn't just about honoring the past—it's about understanding the game we love today.
But this conversation is about more than statistics, championships, and legendary ballplayers. It's about perseverance, opportunity, friendship, and the power of storytelling to ensure that generations of greatness are never forgotten.
Whether you're a lifelong baseball fan or just discovering the history of the Negro Leagues, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
Because baseball history isn't complete without Negro Leagues history.
Join us for an unforgettable conversation with Bob Kendrick, right here on Swing and a Miss.
