Chatter in the Swamp

Eyes From the Opposing Dugout

June 17, 2025 • Ryan Fitzpatrick • Season 1 • Episode 2

In this episode of Chatter in the Swamp, we talk about SwampBats updates from this past week. Then, we go behind enemy lines with Tommy Sullivan, a rising redshirt junior pitcher from Franklin Pierce University and a key arm for the North Adams SteepleCats. Originally from Plymouth, Massachusetts, Tommy shares his journey from the South Shore to summer ball in the NECBL, reflects on life as a redshirt athlete, and gives us a glimpse into his mindset on the mound.

We talk pitch relationships, chemistries, and the intensity of NECBL rivalries—including what it’s like to face off against the SwampBats. Whether you're a pitcher, a hitter, or just a fan of summer ball stories, this is one you don’t want to miss.
