Episode 188 - That Takes Balls
from Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast · host twostrikenoise
It’s World Series time! We get ready as MLB wraps up the season by looking forward to some more baseball across the world to keep us busy until spring, plus we find out what the dictionary thinks about Hunter Strickland, we look at players who have played for their namesake, have what might be our final debut of the season and dip our toes in the trivia pool for the first time since March! Our main segment this week documents the history of balls. Get your mind out of the gutter, we’re talking pitched balls and umpires were actually forced to call them and why they were considered unmanly as a way of getting on base. In Wax Pack Heroes Mark makes the biggest mistake in WPH history, can he over come it?
