StewPod: Adam Jones on the best places to eat around MLB

The StewPod: Baseball, pop culture & more

Adam Jones is many things — an All-Star outfielder for the Baltimore Orioles, a Silver Slugger, a husband and father, a fun follow on social media. But there's another thing he loved to talk to us about on the latest installment of the StewPod, the Yahoo Sports baseball podcast. He's quite the foodie. Whether he's tweeting his #StayHungry hashtag or looking for the best places to eat on the road, Jones knows what's up with food. Remember when got a birthday cake that looked like a Popeye's box? But if you ask Jones the best places to eat around MLB (as we did on this week's show) he'll quickly have answers for you, whether it's a small Cuban place in New York or which barbecue spot he prefers in Kansas City. (Food Network, you listening?) And that's just one of the topics Jones covered his chat with us. We covered a wide range of topics, such as the Orioles' hot start and their power potential, the recent wave of PED busts in baseball and his game-day routine. A few highlights: On the O's power: "As an offense, it's good knowing that, all right cool, we're never out of a game. We're one swing away from being back in it." On PEDs: "Obviously these people are making mistakes that are getting caught. I think they put a good structure in place for us with all the supplements, so it is a mistake that they're making. But to say that they're bad people and all that kind of stuff is not where I would start." This week's show also brings Bad News Ramen back to the StewPod and he's got a great story about Warren G. We're also talking about PEDs, selfies and "Space Jam." Here's the full rundown: • Selfies in baseball • Adam Jones joins the show • Adam's pregame routine • The Orioles' hot start • How many players on the Orioles can hit 30 homers? • How he reacts to PED suspensions • Would he want to do a food show after baseball? • His favorite places to eat in numerous MLB cities • Three Strikes with Bad News Ramen on the Cubs, Curt Schilling and Warren G • The new wave of PEDs • Mike Oz has never seen "Space Jam" and Chris hassles him about it [Music: "Runnin'" by The Pharcyde]
