Baseball is a beautiful game when it's played well. But when it isn't...well, you get games like one that occured 103 years ago this week, when the Phillies and Cubs squared off in the highest scoring game of all time. 51 hits, 21 walks, and 9 errors later, the teams had collaborated to produce 49 runs, of which only 28 were earned. What exactly went wrong here and who were the players who had to suffer through such indignity? Mike and Bill look back on an anti-classic to try and figure it out.
Plus, happy birthday to Garry Maddox and Tom Candiotti!
And farewell to Hosken Powell and Ed Mickelson.
