In the 33 years since the 1985 World Series, baseball has changed radically. Rob Neyer (@robneyer)'s new book, Power Ball, uses a relatively meaningless September contest between the Astros and Athletics to explore how the game has evolved, the ways that its thriving, and how it is struggling. Mike and Bill interview Rob about his book, and about these changes in relation to that '85 Series in the first of a two-part look at the '85 Series. Plus, happy birthday to Al Oliver and Roy Cullenbine.
