Making his triumphant return to the podcast and on his way to the Pac 12 Championship game, Shotgun Spratling talked about USC sports, Big West Baseball, and the difficulties of being both a photographer and writer. Southern California’s sports journalism mercenary has a lot of thoughts about a lot of things. Hope you enjoy.

Previewing the San Luis Obispo regional, Joe Davidson from the Sacramento Bee and Shotgun Spratling from College Baseball Daily talk about Cal Poly, Sacramento State, Arizona State, and Pepperdine.

Shotgun Spratling. The name. The legend. By Owen Main

Shotgun Spratling got the name Shotgun in Tee-Ball and it’s stuck with him ever since. The writer for College Baseball Daily sat down with me before Sunday’s series finale between UCSB and Cal Poly to talk baseball in Southern California and to tell me whether the Big West is actually better than the Pac 12 this season.
