My guest today is Casey Stern. Casey was a former contestant on ESPN’s reality series Dream Job. Casey, thanks for answering some questions. Please tell us more about yourself.

By Josh (9 Inning Know It All): With the regular season now officially over it is time for the baseball world to see just how exciting the new Wild Card format is going to be for the playoffs this year. Personally I’m pumped to see the excitement in both of the stadiums on Friday night. …
