Episode 303 - Frank Pastore & John Beradino, They Left Baseball — And Got Famous Anyway

In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark dive into a variety of engaging topics. They kick off by discussing baseball players who stand out due to their 6,7 height. Jeff quizzes listeners on Chicago White Sox mascot Southpaw's weight in baseballs. They transition to humorous Pantone color discussions and a potential new curse linked to Colonel Sanders. The hosts reminisce about various '80s baseball movies and reveal Frank Pastor and John Bernardino's surprising careers post-baseball. Wrapping up, they play Wax Pack Heroes with a focus on 1990 Donruss cards, including notable players like Tim Wallach and Jim Abbott. 00:00 Welcome and Introductions 00:20 Richie Sexton Studio and Tall Players 02:14 Trivia Time: South Paw's Weight 03:14 World Series and Pantone Colors 04:17 Colonel Sanders and a New Baseball Curse? 05:24 Bull Durham: The Musical 07:45 Lou Gehrig's Historic Jersey 09:38 Seinfeld and Baseball Cards 12:22 Players with Successful Post-Baseball Careers 30:31 Wax Pack Heroes: Baseball Card Game 44:42 Wrapping Up and Listener Engagement YouTube - www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise Bluesky - @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Facebook -https://www.facebook.com/TwoStrikeNoise/ Instagram - @twostrikenoise E-mail - [email protected] We pull ALOT of commons in Wax Pack Heroes.
