"baseball in Britain keeps going because there are people that are willing to go out and help baseball..."

This week, John lets me gatecrash his Friday night bubble fun by letting me interview him about his playing days and his transition into umpiring. Along the way, we chat about his time in Brighton with some of British Baseballs greats, making a grand entrance and lasting first impression with the Bolton Robots of Doom, why you should consider umpiring when you think your playing days are coming to an end, hitting secrets vs a GB Hall of Fame pitcher, his favourite players and friendships he's made in the sport, how beers with Gavin Marshall made him want to stay in the game, listeners questions and a great shout out to some unsung heroes in British Baseball
