Matthew returns to the states for a very special *food* episode of Battery Mates. He and Toby go around the horn on C.B. (Stevie) Bucknor, Curt Schilling’s fall from political grace, the Nationals’ dominance over the Atlanta baseball club, and bullshit surrounding the “unwritten rules” of baseball.

Sonia Chopra, managing editor at Eater, joins the show to talk about Eater's Stadium Dining Guide and does an excellent job of making Battery Mates Nation very, very hungry. The whole thing is followed by a light dessert of #engagement and another brief foray into British slang.
