No Crying In Baseball
Hosted by Voxtopica · EN
When Patti and her potty-mouthed friend talk baseball, you'll know this is not a baseball podcast for lightweights. This is the real deal, from real fans. Because diamonds are a strong woman's best friend, and there's no crying in baseball.

Hey Cage Fighters, Get Off My Lawn
3d ago00:54:44Tap to summarizeWe crosstrain with the Fascist-in-Chief tearing up the South Lawn of the White House in order to host a UFC event in honor of his own birthday and to celebrate America 250. Because nothing says patriotism, etc. Pottymouth finally gets Blaze on the roster, maybe a day late but it will be great and in talking about Caleb we wonder if anyone else has said GSwing out loud. Nick breaks a streak but also the NYY so Patti’s okay. Cam steals a home run and finally has some fun at home. PCA shows the shirtless guys what’s up and leads us to a very weird conversation about where to draw the line in what’s permissible to yell at a heckler. Pottymouth uses Kiké’s injury as a teaching moment for a vocabulary lesson in words probably not permissible to yell at a heckler. Cristopher Sánchez’s streak may lead him right to a Cy Young. MLB and MLBPA have fired their first economic proposal shots at each other and it looks bleak. Wander Franco is still guilty but yet free and we have thoughts and feelings. Thank you Os for a baseball does good story with their first Birdland Next Up Scholarship.We say, “Partridge Family vibes for sure,” “I have 117 follow up questions,” and “put a lovely drape over the gaping hole.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Stay True to your Superhero Lore
1w ago00:49:26Tap to summarizeWe’re pretty sure Batman doesn’t mean what Nathan Lukes thinks it means. The Password is up for PIT and the Username is in Maine. Nick surpasses Rickey’s streak. Other Nick debuts in front of home town crowd. James Frickin Wood scores a real inside the park GS (sorry, JJ). Everybody loves Salvy, and Chris is retiring for real this time. It doesn’t matter if your home run hits the top of the foul pole or the base, it counts the same and both are pretty notable. The Johnson’s, if that’s their real name, home run ball luck inspires us to greatness. Pottymouth encourages Mexico and Canada as alternate World Cup viewing sites if you are not a lucky New Yorker benefitting from a Mayor who gets it. And we embrace solidarity with a Mexican teacher’s union with an excellent plan for visibility. We channel a little Brenda Vaccaro because we don’t know the sultry, gravelly voice of kids today. Please help.We say, “Tommy Phams says hold my beer,” “Chuchaqui sounds like what being hungover feels like,” and “I don’t have really great aspirations but I’d like to do a teeny bit better.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →62 or 12, You Make the Call
2w ago00:51:14Tap to summarizeWelcome to the episode where we embrace retirement age and a respect for poetry at the same time our inner 12 year olds attempt to discuss cockfighting with the seriousness it deserves. That’s right, in the same hour we reference NPR and the National Baseball Poetry Festival, and Edwin Diaz and his 150 cock photos on Facebook. Not that kind. We tell you about Thor dabbling with slander, Yasiel Puig’s perceived lack of remorse, and the wrong kind of banner day at Nat’s Park. Pottymouth’s boyfriends battle it out – Will Blaze be the new Westy? How will the Jorbit/Nasim contest end? Patti’s guys have the big bats this week, and she finally has a starting pitcher back in the flock. Gavin is locked in for the clutch hits. And Tommy Pham becomes the Free Space. CBA negotiations have finally begun and this piece on ESPN can help you get up to speed.We say, “I can’t explain Tommy Pham,” “our favorite bat-licker,” and “the only sport where you should have knives on your feet is ice hockey.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Loose and Crackly
3w ago00:55:36Tap to summarizeTarik may have had loose bodies removed from his elbow but Patti’s pitching flock remains in shambles. Our boyfriends are getting beaned, sometimes by the aforementioned flock member. We don’t care for it, and yet what happened to warnings? Pottymouth catches us up on her overabundance of catchers. Shea has Dad Power. JJ hits an inside the park grand slam and laments the running. Patti relates. It turns out, at the one-quarter season mark, that we are terrible about predicting where teams will be in the standings but not so bad about identifying individual stand-out players. Pottymouth digs deeper around the self-deportation of Humberto Federico Cruz-Guajardo. Patti wants you to read this article in Andscape putting the importance of the new owners of the Padres into the context of who has power and what that means. We invite you into WPBL player Brittany Apgar's public conversation about DIY solutions to protecting the nub. And finally, we crosstrain with souvenir beverage delivery systems. Beer skates, anyone?We say, “left hip inflammation screams ‘old guy’,” “a dunkel in the fridge,” and “it doesn’t seem like a cap someone who likes baseball would wear.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Super Helpful for the Mental
May 500:55:44Tap to summarizeWe have streaks, and streaks that have been struck, and hello new guy, and some monster home runs fueled by quesadillas. Patti preps you for collective bargaining which should start Any Day Now. And she wants you to do some homework by reading this piece in the Athletic if you want to get all caught up. Pottymouth gets all Alice in Wonderland with the Phils firing their manager and is Mattingly 110 yet? We cross train with national anthems and the NHL and a pretty meaningful O Canada moment. The Women’s Baseball World Cup qualifiers were great for Canada and not so much for Puerto Rico – next stop Rockford. Congrats to some DC Girls Baseball stars heading to the Maria Pepe series in Williamsport. Lastly, the Miami Grand Prix tells the Brooklyn Cyclones I see your hot dog jog and raise you caviar and gold flakes. Patti cheated on NCiB with another podcast. Check her out on the Daily Deuce. Video and everything.We say, “He talks like Cody Bellinger looks,” “Let’s hope that all works out with the purple coat,” and, “more ridiculous hot dog news.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Purge, Refill, Repeat
Apr 2801:03:12Tap to summarizeIs it the rant on the Boston massacre or an overview of the Cyclones’ Weenie Weekend? Take your pick, we’ve got both. Buckle up, Pottymouth has takes. Adley is back and he brought his bat, James spoils a debut, and Ben MacDonald has a UFO moment. The Mexico Series brought a split for SD and ARI, and a big win for local kids with a huge free baseball clinic and Play Ball benefits. Patti highlights MLB’s surprisingly good sustainability work including team awards announced on Earth Day. We’re concerned about the health effects of consuming processed meat and running of laps yet we can’t look away. And NYY hit the slippery slope of first we can have facial hair so now we’re asking for navy blue.We say, “New York does sh*t right – I can’t believe I said that out loud,” “butter delivery system,” and “the As don’t have a city to connect with.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Pope-a-Palooza
Apr 2101:06:27Tap to summarizeIn which we consider the logistics of the CWS-branded pope hat giveaway. Are they inappropriate? Are they too tall to see over? What are the optics if pope hat-wearing fans brawl? Alas, it’s not for us to determine first hand, but we do get in an inadvertent “holy crap.” In the boyfriend report we find both bombs and f-bombs where Sal is concerned, We celebrate the turnaround of slow starts by Nick, Connor, and Josh. The former boyfriend word of the way is “Pokikémon.” You’re welcome. It’s a low bar when we celebrate flipping off fans over homophobic slurs but here we are. Alby takes it on the chin and still goes to work. We ponder the barrier- and record-breaking sale of the Padres and its implications for collective bargaining. We help you feel better about having done your taxes – at least you’re not filing 20 state returns and factoring in those 8 days you worked in Canada.We say, “De-escalate and then you can have a block party,” “Exas-pergasted,” and “everything is coming up Pottymouth.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Disco, but in a Good Way
Apr 1400:57:46Tap to summarizeIt's the episode you didn’t know you needed. Patti and the Pottymouth review all eight new City Connect uniforms at one time. A+ for Baltimore and San Diego, who are both two for two (if we round up). The Os design leans hard into what makes Camden Yards great and an understanding of the importance of neighborhood. The Pads celebrate their bi-national city by embracing multiple cultures as well as the history of the team and the city, and inviting you to do the same. Many of the new looks have their charms but we’re not sold – with the caveat that if we were *from* those places we might feel differently. Cincinnati went with the thought that folks might wear 1.0 and 2.0 in the same Christmas card photo so they should go together. Pottymouth points out that if they are going to call back to the vests, just give us the vests. The Atlanta blue is a terrific throwback but they lost us with honoring a cable station. Patti likes the MIL grill logo cap and Pottymouth likes the colors, but tell us the truth, is “Wisco” a thing? We are thumbs up on the Royals whether you call the colors bi-pride or fuschia, and the white and throwback R are working for us. We are mixed on the wavy crown. We like that PIT went pirate-y, but did they go Pittsburgh-y? TEX gets the fail by basically incorporating All Lives Matter into jersey form. We’re all the same! In boyfriend news, the C’s are both raking and staying awake. Ronny walks it off, Drake is raking, and Cam gets called up to Patti’s team. Miggy Ro and the Lowes are playing through loss. Ichiro’s record and his bat were broken in the same week. The PWHL sells out another Garden, and Boston is embracing the Fleet in all the best ways.We say, “Bring back the biceps,” “less catching of the aforementioned f&*ing ball,” and “I love sportsing.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Maybelle Blair Brought Out the Sun
Apr 700:46:59Tap to summarizeDrake Baldwin got mentioned in the same sentence as Henry Aaron, and Pottymouth invited Justin Crawford’s mom for vegan cheesesteaks. Carter overslept, Matt got salty, and Chase got the singalong started. We didn’t call it Police Blotter, but Jo robbed three home runs in one game. There’s a Boston Archdiocese smackdown over corned beef and Fenway Franks, while in New York the PWHL is selling out the Garden. We check in on the ABS challenge system and look forward to next year’s Women’s Baseball World Cup. And we keep adding tabs to the Epic Road Trip Google Sheet.We say, “We’re out of opening days,” “Obama’s basketball court,” and “It tastes as smokey as I sound.” Fight the man, go see some live baseball, send your game balls to Meredith,, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.

Transcribe →Bad at Math, Good at Superstition
Mar 3100:52:22Tap to summarizeJoin us as we try not to overreact to the small sample size that is Opening Weekend. The kids are definitely alright – rookie BFs Sal, Justin, Chase, and JJ are doing us proud. Dom hits a grand slam that hits especially hard, and Freddie hugs it out. The police blotter features LAD making a bad decision in fan relations, mom and dad making some allegedly bad decisions in money management, the CWS deciding not to consult with Frank, and the mayor of Cincinnati deciding to skip town on Opening Day and turn an overcrowding situation into ammunition. There are more Opening Days world-wide, and international baseball features some former bfs. The Fun Cup is back and we’re all for the Worms. We’re making plans for ballpark food for the epic road trip. Send us your recommendations!We say, “We get you, Mom Wetherholt,” “Whatever you order, get two,” and “I like that you round up on Seder.” Fight the man, send your game balls to Meredith, get boosted, and find us on Bluesky @ncibpodcast, on Facebook @nocryinginbball, Instagram @nocryinginbball and on the Interweb at nocryinginbball.com.
