The All Star break is upon us and this week we take time out to remember some All Star Game mishaps. Mainly, alot of players wearing equipment that belongs to teams they do not play for.

His cards were the holy grail for collectors in the early 90’s. Scouts called him the best prospect they’d ever seen.

Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast ·

2022/04/19

This week we continue our on-going series of MLB pitchers who are a little bit off. Bughouse used to be synonymous being a little off, that’s where Bugs Raymond got his nickname. Bugs was a fan of the booze, but he was a hell of a pitcher too. We also talk about that one time Frank Sinatra managed the Cubs, try to figure out who Ichiro Cano is named after and remember some memorable debuts. We open a couple of packs of 2000 Topps.
