Sean pitches a complete game - but then gets moved to the bullpen - with the story of Rogelio "Roger" Moret. Moret became a can't miss prospect with Boston but couldn't solidify his position in their rotation. His career would fade as fast as it rose and unfortunately he would be known more for an infamous moment in the Texas Rangers clubhouse than his pitching.

Eds is on the bump in the middle of the World Series and throws Sean a slider with the story of the 1906 Chicago White Sox who were the underdogs against the Cubs juggernaut in the first ever subway series Fall Classic. Player Manager Fielder Jones ran a tight ship and captained his squad to victory against the record setting North Siders despite his team having the lowest team batting average ever to make it to the big dance.

Sean delivers a curveball as the Cincinnati Reds returned to the Fall Classic after losing in 1939 but this time they are playing for more than pride. They are playing to honour back-up catcher Willard Hershberger after tragedy struck the team mid-season.

Eds steps to the hill with a cutter; the inspiring life of Dave Dravecky. From humble beginnings in Youngstown, Ohio, Dravecky beat the odds and made it to the majors and became one of the big game pitchers of the 1980's. His inspirational career was tragically cut short at the end of the decade but that didn't stop him from continuing to serve a higher purpose beyond the diamond.

Sean winds up and delivers the story of Pascual Perez, a slim, erratic pitcher who had one of the wildest careers in baseball history. Whether in the middle of brawls, pennant races or drug controversies, Pascual was a spark plug for his teams, just don’t ask him for a ride if you wanna get to the ball park on time.  

Eds steps to the mound to tell the life story of Lou Novikoff; one of the game's purest hitters. Born in the Arizona desert to Russian immigrants, Lou tore it up on the fast-pitch diamond and worked his way to the majors becoming one of the most feared flash in the pan hitters of his day. He wasn't a Hall of Famer in Cooperstown but all who saw him play couldn't deny that "The Mad Russian" certainly made baseball more fun.

Due to some technical difficulties in the recording this week Sean and Eds are forced to revisit an episode from January of 2021.

Sean tosses a curveball with the story of one of the first famous fans of the game; "Howlin'" Hilda Chester. Hilda lived a rough life but found solace in the bleachers of Ebbets Field screaming at her beloved Brooklyn Bums. Soon she was as big of a story as the Dodgers and became part of the team. That is until they broke her heart in 1957.

As Sean and Eds enjoy the All Star Break we turn back the clock to July of 2021 when they welcomed friend and former high school baseball teammate Matt Marchese (host of The FAN Hockey show, former producer of Prime Time Sports at Sportsnet 590 The Fan & writer for Sportsnet) to the podcast as Eds stumbles upon another story; this time with a local twist. A tale from the nebulous depths of baseball history that tells how the meteoric rise of a man who shovelled his way to the major leagues from the train yards to the ball fields was ultimately stymied in a surprisingly spectacular fashion.

Eds steps back into the chalked box and throws a complete game with the life story of Silver King. One of the "speediest" pitchers of the late 19th century who had a chip on his shoulder and very few friends on or off the field. King had a strong start to his career but the games growth during its infancy ultimately caused Kings promising career to fizzle out quickly, not before he left his mark in baseball's record books though.
