Usually when one of our episodes is themed around something that's already ancient history when the episode arrives, it's because it took us a long time to edit and prepare it. But to be honest, the All Star Break had already concluded when we recorded this episode. I don't think that's so important though because this episode is timeless. Rather than fussing about with the very premise of our podcast, we discuss two articles by ESPN writer Sam Miller.

How the Home Run Derby became America's national pastime*, 

Radical Ideas Series: What if every MLB team made the playoffs?.

Music:

Littlest League Possible - Guided By Voices, 

I Can't Let You Throw Yourself Away - Randy Newman (mentioned).
