2025 MLB Time Capsule: Ohtani’s Special Pillow, Baseball Pope, Misiorowski’s Charizard & Yankees’ Torpedo Bats


Listen Later

The 2025 Major League Baseball season was one of the most memorable in recent history. From the Los Angeles Dodgers becoming the first repeat champions since the New York Yankees’ ’90s dynasty to the incredible run that brought the Toronto Blue Jays to their first World Series since 1993, it’s time to look back at the unforgettable moments from the season that was.

On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman revisit the year in baseball with their annual time capsule episode. Starting with the Opening Series in Japan—which featured Shohei Ohtani getting a little help on a home run, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. receiving a contract extension and Juan Soto’s reception upon his return to the Bronx—the guys collect mementos from these moments so future generations can remember them.

Later, Jake and Jordan discuss the first-ever swing-off to decide the All-Star Game in Atlanta, the extremely rainy Speedway Classic, Jacob Misiorowski pulling an extremely rare Charizard Pokémon card and the first-ever American Pope being a Chicago White Sox fan. This year’s time capsule does not disappoint!
