The Rundown: Battling Dog Days of Global Pandemic, Len Kasper Helps Aspiring Broadcaster, KBO Debuts on ESPN

Often in late spring training, or just after the trade deadline during the regular season, we go through a bit of baseball burnout commonly referred to as the “dog days.”

Like many others, I am currently in the dog days of ths pandemic. The lack of true live sports is starting to get the best of my mood, and isolation is negatively impacting my fight against liver disease. This is my ninth week of self-quarantine, and though I do get out of the house now and again, the inability to fully unsequester myself has me in a bit of a deep funk right now.
