Baseball season is almost here, and this episode of the Last Night’s Game podcast is your approachable guide to the biggest MLB storylines heading into the 2026 season.
Amy and Scott cover the topics that baseball fans and sports-curious people will actually be talking about, including Shohei Ohtani’s Babe Ruth comparison, the new ABS challenge system, and the rise of luxury jewelry and fashion trends on the baseball field. They also look at why the Seattle Mariners are worth cheering for if you don’t have a team and break down the larger conversation around the Los Angeles Dodgers, payroll, the luxury tax, and the possibility of a future MLB lockout.
If you want a quick, fun way to understand Opening Day storylines, follow the biggest baseball trends, and pick up a few easy sports conversation starters, this episode is for you.
The Last Night's Game podcast is here to take the awkwardness out of the conversation and help you join the sports conversation, even if you don't know the first thing about sports. We break down what's happening in sports in an easy-to-understand, fun way without all of the statistics and jargon, so you never have to exit stage left when the chatter at the office, dinner table or networking event switches to sports.
