Why Minor League Baseball Hits Different

All Of It with Alison Stewart | Jul 23, 2025

Sure, you could spend hundreds of dollars to take your family to a Mets or a Yankees game. Or you could spend a fraction of that amount to experience the enduring goofiness of minor league baseball, which takes itself a lot less seriously -- and has more interesting food. Benjamin Hill covers the minor leagues for MiLB.com, and Rex Doane (who is a senior producer at WNYC by day) is a serious fan. They discuss the joys of minor league baseball.
