With the future of diamond sports in mind and the desire to tell the story of some of the most talented young athletes in world, Perfect Game is excited to share a brand new bi-weekly podcast, “Amateur Hour, powered by Perfect Game”. Hosted by Daron Sutton and Dani Wexelman, Amateur Hour will provide the platform for athletes to introduce themselves, beyond the field of play, with brand new insightful conversations each episode. Amateur Hour will also lean on Perfect Game’s deep roster of gifted scouts in the “Scout’s Eyes” segment, where talent evaluators will bring their notebooks to life each episode. Amateur Hour will be the revealing force behind many of Perfect Game’s brand new rankings of prospects at various classes, travel teams and high school programs. Music will be woven throughout each episode as award winning musician Ryan McIntyre (https://ryanmcintyremusic.com/) will provide the soundtrack, introductions and serve as an occasional interviewer, tapping into his passion for the game.
Amateur Hour will also lean on the very best of a deep media library provided by three weekly Perfect Game SiriusXM shows, MLB Roundtrip with Perfect Game (MLB Network Radio), Perfect Game College Baseball (ESPNU) and Perfect Game Softball (ESPNU), as well as content produced for PerfectGame.TV, the only streaming network devoted to amateur baseball.

Episode Six features brand new in-depth conversations with University of Florida commit Yoel Tejeda Jr (No. 2 Overall 1B, ’22 Class) and Sam Erickson (No. 1 Ranked Wisconsin, ’24 Class) as we learn about both athletes and their very unique journeys that found them both at PG’s Main Event Showcase. Scout's Eyes notebook reads from Jheremy Brown, Greg Gerard and Jered Goodwin with an eye on the Main Event; a slice of the epic conversation between PG College Baseball's Hunter Pence and New Mexico head coach Ray Birmingham, as the two go old school grit and determination, keys to success as a Lobo.
