  • Home Run Applesauce in Conversation: Bobby Bonilla
    Jan 30 2025
    Welcome to Home Run Applesauce in Conversation, a podcast from Fans First Sports Network where we invite interesting people on the show to talk about themselves, the Mets, and more. Today, we welcome Bobby Bonilla to the show. Bobby was, at the time, the highest paid player in baseball when the Mets signed him in 1992. After being traded away during the 1995 season, Bonilla returned to the Mets in 1999 and aided in their playoff push. We talk to Bobby about his time as a Met, his infamous "Bobby Bonilla Day" every July 1, and a lot more. Here is a link to the article by Ted Berg that perfectly describes why the Mets' deferring Bonilla's money was a win for everyone. Bobby was on the show today to promote the Players' Trust Playmakers Classic, taking place on February 18, 2025 at Warehouse215 in Phoenix, AZ. The Playmakers Classic is not your typical fundraiser—it's an evening designed to engage, entertain, and inspire. Enjoy nonstop entertainment, food, wine and spirit tastings, live performances, and friendly competitions that make this event truly one-of-a-kind. Join Major League Baseball Players as we celebrate the spirit of giving back and raise crucial funds to support life-changing programs that uplift youth and communities in need across the U.S. and around the world. For more on the event, visit the Players Trust website. Tickets are available here. Go to HomeRunApplesauce.com for information on how to join our Patreon. And, as always, let's go Mets.

  • A Pod of Their Own, Episode 225: “Mr. Wilpon, I don’t feel so good” feat. Laura Albanese
    Jan 21 2025
    Welcome back to A Pod of Their Own, an all-women led Home Run Applesauce podcast where we talk all things Mets, social justice issues in baseball, and normalize female voices in the sports podcasting space. This week, we are joined by very special guest Laura Albanese, who covers the Mets and Yankees at Newsday. We begin our conversation by asking Laura about how she got to where she is now and what barriers women still face in the industry. We then shift our focus to the Mets and discuss the cultural shift within the Mets’ organization that includes an emphasis on family, which was part of what attracted Sean Manaea and Juan Soto to the Mets as free agents. We also talk about cultural differences between the Mets and Yankees and Laura’s favorite 2024 Mets bit. We also talked about the offseason, the current free agent market, and labor issues - what the deal is with Pete Alonso’s free agency, whether the Dodgers are good or bad for baseball, Laura’s 2025 predictions, and more. Finally, we wrap things up with Walk-off Wins, where each of us talks about what’s making us happy this week, baseball-related or otherwise.
