Chipper Jones Downloads On Creating an Advantage in Baseball

[@joeshelton1077]

I miss Chipper Jones as a player in the MLB. But he's now a MLB Hall of Famer, and works for my old team, the Atlanta Braves! Fantastic interview!!!

[@dirtybirdsrise]

I had the joy of growing up in the 90s with solid racing and solid Braves baseball. Through the 90's, that team was absolutely wicked.

[@eklypised]

Yessirr

[@SJKLR99]

Should of won more championship the Braves had some heart breaking years,. So wouldn't stuff on your taint look like you sharted?

[@dirtybirdsrise]

@@SJKLR99 I wish I would have thought of doing the ol' sticky taint when I was in highschool. Definitely would have helped. 😂

[@thunderchaser2042]

One of the best pitching rotations. Maddux, Glavine, Smoltz, Avery, and Mercker.

[@batboyssports]

Very long time Braves fan, I remember the worst to first year like it was yesterday. I'm glad they have at least one world series championship but should have had a couple more. Ironically I think the Indians had the best team they faced in the world series. They were stacked

[@aaronhogan6926]

Man I miss the Braves from the 90’s and early 2000’s. Great interview!

[@tobystent]

This was a great podcast. Usually I’m a bit weary when a non racing guest comes on as it’s usually an hour or two of someone saying how hard they worked to get to where they are and trying to be a motivational speaker. I’ve never watched baseball in my life and I was absolutely loving this podcast and learnt so much!

3 players that ATL will always love more than anything. Hank Aaron, dale murphy, chipper Jones. The kings of baseball in ATL

Chipper Jones was the first athlete I was legit a fan of. Wore my baseball pants like him, watched every game I could. Seems like a cool guy to hang out with.

[@JBoston50]

Grew up a die-hard Cardinals fan, but I have always been a big fan of Chipper, class act.

[@joshuafarmer3467]

It would be great to be Jr to be able to interview all of these great people/athletes.

[@-BigMike-]

This was a badass podcast. Especially when Chipper threw shade at that toolbox Angel Hernandez.

[@garywilt76]

I became a Braves fan the year before Chipper came to the majors in 1993. A friend from Atlanta told me, "Watch Chipper Jones, he's going to be a great one."

[@DC322]

Your friend was 100% right. Todd Van Poppel was a major bust in the majors as a #1 overall pick.

[@davinwesinger3234]

Chipper and Dale sr.... my childhood in one. I wore my stir ups like chipper during the week playing ball and was sitting on the couch screaming at the tv for the #3 every weekend

[@ianperry9598]

Chipper on Dale Jrs show?! Never would’ve imagined it. Makes me smile as a Braves fan!

[@DC322]

Yeah. Dale's dad was a huge Braves fan.

[@cbanks5678]

Favorite player behind Cal Ripken Jr...Chipper was always pretty nice and signed a lot when i was a kid at the back player parking gate at Turner....Smoltzy and Glavine were the nicest and would sign forever when they would get out of their cars...but my favorite momento from those times is when John Rocker signed my jersey lol

[@popsicle33]

Chipper and Jr. 2 legends

Dont do podcasts? It was just a new word for show, you watch shows? Listen to radio? You do podcasts, you just dont call it that.

Chipper, one of the best swirch hitters ever... one ring sadly... deserved more...

Applying pine tar on their drivers steering wheels. 😂

[@timkirchhof9958]

Charlie Finley (owner of the A's) complained about pine tar getting on the baseballs that they would be discarded. As owner, he paid for the baseballs. He didn't want to pay for as many basballs so he asked for that rule about how high pine tar could go on the bat. He was just being cheap.

[@genius179]

One thing he would’ve been right on, but the owners didn’t listen because he was so cheap. He wanted almost every guy to be FA every year, not have FA classes where guys get more because they’re the best available. So imagine if Nomar, Jeter, and A-Rod were all FA at the same time in 2000, you think Alex is getting that 252M deal?

[@Littlewing1977]

❤ Chipper. Best switch hitter ever imo.

[@EclecticHillbilly]

Ever hear of Mickey Mantle?

[@pp3k3jamail]

You can literally go to their website and listen to it for free on the internet.

@@joeyjohnson4826 you don't need to listen to it on Spotify. You can literally type in Dale Jr podcast on Google in the browser and go to the Dale Jr podcast and listen to all the people whose interviewed through the browser. You don't need to download no stupid Spotify app.

[@jtjvlj]

The deal with George Brett game was that Martin knew he always had pine tar too far up on the bat. He waited for the right time to bring it to the umps' attention, but the rule said the bat is to be removed from the game..., not call the batter 'out'. This is why the Royals protested the call, and the 'out' call was reversed, and, the Yankees & Royals played out the rest of the game at a later date with the Royals winning on Brett home run. Nobody ever brings up the actual ending to that game.

[@BallparkGuide]

The comment at 6:04 is the absolute best! 😂

[@michaelwalley4539]

Yes! Best 3rd baseman ever

[@wingracer1614]

I was doing a comparison a year or so ago and it's crazy how closely he lines up with Mickey Mantle. Mantle is ahead on some stats but Chipper has him in some others. Very similar careers. Also funny that Mantle was my dad's favorite player, Chipper mine.

So which one of his ex teammates did the taint thing... Maddux? Glavine? Smoltz?

[@mikethompson7436]

Pine tar rule was put into effect because the tar was was wrecking the balls back when the used the same ball the entire game

[@klk1900]

The pine tar doesn’t increase rpm on baseballs. But that damn spider tack the new stuff it will add 400-600rpm. But it’s impossible to hit so it’s making the sport go down the tubes as a result.

[@Bestoftheworstfishing]

I haven't watched mlb since he played for the braves

[@richl9623]

Man don't let Jimmy Spencer know anything about pine tar. He'll be applying it on everything. 😂🤣😂😅

[@blanenoel4231]

Chipper Cool!

[@jesuschristislord6790]

He seemed to have a hard time understanding the "how do you apply pin tar to the bat" question. Dale asked it twice and got two answers about pitching lol.

[@michaelbatt9680]

Chippers response was how guys use it to cheat not how its actually applied to a bat. I think the subject of cheating lead him to that response. I think jr can figure out how to apply it to a bat cause chip already answered that when he said the batter applies the tar, then the rosin, then more tar.

[@johns5263]

Played baseball for years. My opinion is stop shaving down the threads on the ball. It helps with grip. But idc honestly. Use the pine tar

[@ericpaschke4290]

Hahahahaha your taint lol I'm died 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@SquirminHermanthe1eyedGerman]

So Chipper is saying that a little taint tar is good for grabbing the wood & holding on

[@T1625-w7d]

The rule on pine tar to far up the bat is because owners are cheap. In the 50s or 60s balls were taken out of play due to pine tar on them. Home teams pay for the baseball. Owners to cut cost, made a rule on how far pine tar could go up a bat to keep it off baseballs.

[@EclecticHillbilly]

Exactly. Stealing signs is as old as baseball. In his book, Don Zimmer (3rd base coach at the time) said the 84 Cubs were the best team he ever saw at stealing signs.

I appreciate the curtain being drawn back a bit on various sports, and I also appreciate Dale's perspective and explanation about his thinking behind inviting Chipper on the show. He's good at getting old stars to come open up about a part of the life we don't often get to see, and I see no reason why that should be rejected just because it doesn't involve a really fast car. More narratives, more stories, more interesting history made official and preserved, is all to the good. Who knows? If you give it a listen, you might even find something interesting that opens up a whole new world for you. That's how some of us got into racing in the first place, after all.
