Thirty years after “Bull Durham,” Kevin Costner remains one of baseball’s most recognizable avatars. Between 1988 and 1999, the square-jawed, iron-armed movie star made three films about the quintessentially American aura of the game: “Field of Dreams,” “Bull Durham,” and “For Love Of The Game.” This week, we’re joined by Houston Chronicle reporter and Astros beat writer Hunter Atkins to assess Costner’s baseball abilities, update Susan Sarandon’s “Bull Durham” character, and question whether “Dad, do you wanna have a catch?” is just too much. Happy Opening Day to you and yours.

(Hunter joins the program at 26:30. Follow him on Twitter for all your Astros needs, and maybe check out one of his killer impressions here.)
