The National Review’s Rich Lowry on Yankees, MLB’s Future & Baseball's Labor War

National Review Editor-in-Chief Rich Lowry joins Kelley Franco on The Three Inning Fan Show for a wide-ranging discussion about the changing culture of baseball.

A lifelong Yankees fan, Lowry reflects on the teams and personalities that defined Yankees baseball in the 1970s and 1980s, shares his thoughts on the current club, and explains why he's embraced many of MLB's recent rule changes.

The conversation then turns to some of baseball's biggest unanswered questions. Will MLB expand? Is realignment inevitable? And if the traditional structure of the game changes, what do fans stand to gain, and what might they lose?We also examine the business of baseball, including competitive balance, the luxury tax, the push for a salary cap, and the labor issues that could shape the sport for years to come.
