The series, entitled "The Pride of October", will debut on Wednesday, October 7, during TBS' pregame show MLB On Deck, with expanded versions of the exclusive interviews running as interstitials between games and online at TBS Hot Corner on MLB.com.

"The show is something that I've wanted to do for a long time to be able to communicate to the fan's the common thread that is ingrained in their DNA as special leaders," said Jackson, a 5-time World Series Champion. "What has come through to me, regardless of what walk of life they excel in, is the impact their upbringing has had on their character and ability to dominate when the lamp is turned on them."

The series will focus on the triumphant October performances by some of baseball's greatest players with Jackson, a 14-time MLB All-Star, sitting down with legends of the game in familiar surroundings.
