Episode 48 - Party Like Its 1999

from Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast · host twostrikenoise

We continue to wreak havoc with the space time continuum this week as we travel back to 1999. While prepping for Y2K we managed to relive the entire 1999 MLB season, the highs, the lows, the leaders and the steroid fueled home run binges. We remember Don Larsen’s perfect feat and find out just how long people have been complaining about pitchers hitting. This week’s Wax Pack Heroes come in the form of 1988 Score and it’s a race of attrition. It could come down to who has the most mustaches and stirrups cause there were no stars to be had.
