For one last time in 2021 host Harrison Meyers, Lincoln Revill, and Austin Decouta talk Harbor Hawks baseball and break down the end of the season that went out with a literal bang (make sure to check the broadcasts to see the video of that one).  They talk player of the year, honey butter chicken biscuits, and make their championship picks.

Live from Red Wilson Field in Yarmouth, Lincoln Reville and Matt Noah talk about the most successful week of Harbor Hawk baseball this season and just what their players of the week had to do with it. Then they break down the standings and whats left for the team this season before the final game on August 4th. This is our second to last episode of the season so make sure to listen back so you can catch up for our final episode next week.

Austin, Lincoln, and Matt Interview Ryan Romano (Florida State, for now)about life on Cape Cod and what it's like playing with his twin brother Nick (Central Florida) and whale watching.  Then the crew break down the last two weeks of Harbor Hawk baseball which has ranged from some pretty deep lows, very nice highs, and sometimes just pure silliness.

Harrison and the crew break down another week of Harbor Hawks baseball, the highs, the lows, and in a special conversation with Harbor Hawk Baseball Network Technical Director Matthew Lawrence Noah, the crew talks about the steps they took to get where they are now and how people could follow in their footsteps.

(Tap tap) Is this thing on?  We're back!  Host Harrison Meyers introduces some new voices you will hear on the podcast this year, Austin DeCouta and Lincoln Revill, and the cast break down the action so far this season.  Might we just say, play ball!

In our first special edition of the year we run down the top 5 (and a few honorable mentions) former Harbor Hawks you can watch and cheer on in 2020.  We may not have any summer ball this year but we have Major League Baseball, perhaps the best summer ball you can get.  Stay safe, wear your masks, and stay home to watch some baseball!

Matt Neiser is back to tell us his story of the "end" of his broadcasting career.  Special thanks to Harbor Hawks and Birds the Word sponsors Hy Line cruises, the Black Cat, Cape Cod Orthopedics and Eye Health Services.  If you want to help CapeAbilities click here and help us meet our $500 goal!

If the Tampa Bay Rays win the World Series I'll eat my hat, and other other thoughts on the 2020 MLB season coming up on this episode of Birds the Word.  Will the universal DH really have the impact we all hope it will?  Will starting extra innings with a runner on second help end games faster? The Founder of the Launch Angle Baseball blog Nick Fichtner (@LaunchBaseball), the voice of Cane Cutters baseball Brendan Howe (@BrendanHowe_), and Codball feature writer Matt Neiser (@MattNeez) join us to answer these questions and more on this episode of Birds the Word.

This week former Harbor Hawks Broadcaster Brendan Howe joins the show to talk about his new gig with the Acadiana Cane Cutters, a summer ball team in the Texas Collegiate League, and what life was like after the Cape League cancelled its season.  We also talk about the pros and the likelihood well have Major League Baseball this year.

Its the start of season 3!  The Cape League may have been cancelled for the 2020 season but baseball has not been and neither has this show!  Our Analytics expert Nick Fichtner joins the show to break down the 2020 Major League Baseball draft, tells us what he expects from the 2020 MLB season and talks to us about his new project the Launch Angle.    You can find Nick's writing and subscribe to his site at www.launchbaseball.org

Brendan Howe and Matt Neiser drop by at the end of the last game of the year to help breakdown the 2019 Harbor Hawk season, from their favorite players, to school connections, and what they will take away from their summer on the Cape.  If you have any stories for us shoot us an email at [email protected] or like and follow our Facebook page Birds the Word.
