The Big Red Menace

Dugout of History ·

2024/07/22

Colleen and Chrystal look back at Marge Schott, who made history by becoming the first woman to buy a major league team (Joan Whitney Payson inherited the Mets), then made more history by being an absolute scoundrel, and costing herself control of the team. Infamous enough for smoking that she appeared with a cigarette on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and for her dog who loved pooping on the field at Riverfront Stadium, her true vice – and the source of her downfall – was racism. Schott’s praise

Senior Professional Baseball Association

Dugout of History ·

2024/07/08

Chrystal and Colleen bring you tales of the short-lived Senior Professional Baseball Association, the "Boys of Winter" who played in Florida from 1989-90 with such teams as the Orlando Juice, Bradenton Explorers, and Fort Myers Sun Sox. The even had a baseball card set, but the league for pros over the age of 35 (and slightly younger catchers) didn't catch on. It was a fun idea, so why didn't it catch on? Well, that's why we're here... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Dugout of History ·

2024/07/01

Colleen and Chrystal dive into the trials and tribulations of the Chicago Cubs, from the collapse of 1969 after a black cat ran on the field at Shea Stadium, to the 1945 billy goat incident, to the foul ball in 2003 that changed one man's life, "helped" along by national broadcasters playing into the decades of Cubs failure lore that only dissipated thanks to a freak rainstorm in Cleveland in 2016.

Ten Cent Beer Night

Dugout of History ·

2024/06/17

Fifty years ago this month, Cleveland had a promotion that simply couldn't fail, until it did, spectacularly and utterly predictably. The result of Ten Cent Beer Night was a victory for the Texas Rangers, and only for the Texas Rangers, as it was one of five Major League Baseball games to be forfeited in the expansion era, and half a century later, brings Colleen and Chrystal back together after their spring vacations.

The *Chicago* White Sox

Dugout of History ·

2024/04/22

This could have been all yours, Milwaukee. Or Tampa Bay. Perhaps it still could be yours, Nashville. Or perhaps the White Sox belong in Chicago and will be there forever, no matter how bad their owners are, what kind of weirdos want to buy them and move them, or what damage they do to their own stadium in the name of hating disco music. You think 2024 is bad for the Pale Hose? Let's take a trip back to the 1970s with Chrystal and Colleen. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more

Pete Rose

Dugout of History ·

2024/04/08

It’s never a good thing when Pete Rose is back in the news, and he has been lately because of the alleged theft of $4.5 million from Shohei Ohtani to cover gambling debts. That story has yet to fully unfold. Rose’s has, to the point where the Washington Post ran not one, but two big stories looking back at it… 10 years ago. This year is the 35th anniversary of the death of then-commissioner Bart Giamatti, who banned Rose, even though so much of what happened feels so recent. Nope, it was 1989. It’s

Pittsburgh Drug Trials

Dugout of History ·

2024/04/01

In episode 2 of Dugout of History, Chrystal and Colleen dig into the Pittsburgh drug trials, the scandal that many people know because the Pirate Parrot mascot was implicated as a coke dealer, but that had far-reaching impacts across major league baseball, including shaping the sport’s drug policy into the Steroid Era.For me (producer Jesse, writing the show notes), it’s a very interesting episode because I was a little kid at the time. I remembered Rod Scurry as a Yankee, for instance, and remember

Merkle's Boner

Dugout of History ·

2024/03/25

Colleen and Chrystal start the show by going deep into history for the story of Merkle's Boner, a dramatic turn of events in 1908 that to most folks now is just a funny name for an incident more than a century ago. There's so much more to it than just the boner.From Wikipedia:Merkle's Bonerrefers to the notoriousbase-runningmistake committed by rookieFred Merkleof theNew York Giantsin a game against theChicago Cubson September 23, 1908.
