We on X-Games mode, talking about Marvel’s merry mutants and their love of sportsball. Why do they so deeply enjoy America’s pastime? Why does Gambit play so much basketball? Would Wolverine root for any other team but the Blue Jays? All these questions and more will be answered in this week’s IIAXM—featuring our only two friends!!!

Thanks to Brian Cronin for “Drawing Crazy Patterns - CLAREMONTISM: The X-Men Playing Baseball” at CBR and u/numawalrus’s list of the X-Men playing baseball in comics on the X-Men subreddit.

And an ENORMOUS thanks to Tess and Kate for taking part in this discussion. Check them out in this month’s Patreon ep, too . . . and on another ep in the future!
