Oh, look! Jon and Henry are back with Part III of Absolute Beginners: The Absolute Bunts Guide to Baseball! 

Jon and Henry are back with Season Two of everyone's favourite non-baseball baseball podcast. They're kicking off with a mini-series, though. On June 29-30th, MLB is coming to Europe for the first time in its history. To celebrate this fact, Jon and Henry are running a mini-series that covers the absolute basics of the game. By the time you finish listening to these three (or four) episodes, we promise you, you will know enough about the sport to be able to enjoy both games of the London Series.

Through the course of the series, we will walk you through twenty absolute fundamentals that you need to know to understand the game. These are broken into three main areas:

THE GAME

THE LEAGUE

THE KNOWLEDGE

In Part III, we cover the absolute basics which come within THE LA
LEAGUE section:

11. MLB is the organisation that runs the top baseball league in the USA (7:20 mins)  

12. MLB is divided into two Leagues: the National League & American League (19:15 mins)

13. Each league is divided into three divisions (33:45 mins)

14 The winners of each division go into the postseason  (50:25 mins)
