Episode 86: Flying Squirrels Manager Dennis Pelfrey on Final Diamond Homestand, Winningest Manager Milestone & 2025 Season
I sat down with Richmond Flying Squirrels manager Dennis Pelfrey -- who was on the first-ever episode of the podcast -- in the dugout of the Diamond to talk about the team's 2025 season.
Pelf and I talked about the team's 2025 campaign, including his becoming the Squirrels' all-time winningest manager earlier in the year and how he approached the team's rebound in the second half.
We also talk about the final homestand at the Diamond, which has been Pelf's managing home for the past four years, and what it's been like for him to helm a team making a push for the Eastern League playoffs.
