The Windup: A show about Baseball · The Athletic

August 27, 2025·1 hr 3 min·5 clips
RAC hit a home run at Nationals Park exactly three years after getting signed and released by the team.
As heard by us
A blunt baseball story about failure, reinvention, and daily coaching work.
The review works best when it treats the spring-training release as the beginning of the story, not the end. It follows the silence that came after, then the choice to go public about the reset and turn that moment into daily coaching videos.
Why you'd press play
If you want baseball talk that starts with a release and ends with reinvention, press play.
