Episode 79 - Bob Aspromonte & His Lucky Charm/Entitled Kid
from Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast · host twostrikenoise
This week we talk about fishy HR’s, players born at sea and Oyster Burns. Definitely a bit of a nautical theme. Plus, Bob Aspromonte, a light hitting member of the Colt .45’s who is befriended by a young boy in the hospital. In a baseball tale as old as time, a bed ridden fan asks their favorite player to hit them a home run. What happened after that was beyond anything Babe Ruth or Paul O’Neill could fathom. Finally, Mark is one win away from clinching the first season championship in Wax Pack Heroes. Will he get to pop the cork of the champagne of beers or will he have to wait another week?
