Former Mets Eric Hillman and Bill Pulsipher Launch Left Hindered
Former New York Mets pitchers Eric Hillman and Bill Pulsipher are joining the Rounding Third Media Network with their own live show, Left Hindered. The show premieres Tuesday, December 1 at 7 p.m. ET, and the two lefties will start appearing on other network shows beginning November 12.
Who Are Eric Hillman and Bill Pulsipher?
Both are left-handed pitchers who came up with the New York Mets, which is where the show’s name comes from.
Eric Hillman pitched for the Mets from 1992 to 1994, then continued his career in Japan.
Bill Pulsipher was part of the Mets’ famous “Generation K” trio of pitching prospects. Injuries changed the path of his career, but he went on to pitch for the Brewers, Red Sox, White Sox and Cardinals.
Between them, they have years of clubhouse stories, big league teammates and opinions on the game, and they aren’t shy about sharing any of it.
What Is Left Hindered About?
Left Hindered is two former big league pitchers talking baseball with the fans, not at them. Expect stories from their playing days, takes on today’s game, special guests from around baseball, and plenty of personality.
What made Hillman and Pulsipher a fit for the network is that they want the fan interaction. Plenty of former players have podcasts where they tell their stories and move on. These two want viewers in the chat asking questions and talking with them live, which is exactly how every show on the Rounding Third Media Network works.
Why Is This Show Different for Mets Fans and Every Baseball Fan?
Mets fans will get an inside look at the team through two guys who wore the uniform. But the stories go well beyond Queens. Between Pulsipher’s stops around the league and Hillman’s career in Japan, the show has something for fans of every team.
The timing matters too. Left Hindered launches on December 1, the same day the MLB collective bargaining agreement expires and a lockout is expected to begin. With the players’ side of that fight largely unheard so far, a former player’s perspective is exactly what fans have been asking for.
When and Where Can You Watch Left Hindered?
Meet them first: Starting November 12, Hillman and Pulsipher will rotate through network shows, beginning with Rounding Third and including NY MLB Talk and the 9521 Atlanta Podcast.
Premiere: Tuesday, December 1 at 7 p.m. ET.
Regular schedule: Tuesdays at 7 p.m. ET.

How Did Left Hindered Come Together?
The partnership came together through Rob and Chris of NY MLB Talk and their good friend Brian Kriz, who made the introductions and stuck with every phone call and meeting until the deal was done. Rob and Chris announced the news live on Rounding Third. You can watch the full announcement in our Episode 382 recap.
