109 Randy Bass
Eds throws a curveball in a fastball count and brings an old player back onto the roster with a more in depth covering of the life of Randy Bass; the NPB's first American superstar, who due to some poor foresight by his club was railroaded out of town in the most despicable of circumstances. Listen to how those circumstances left a sour taste in the mouth of the Tigers legend and how they created an awful dilemma for the Hanshin GM.

108 Shotgun Rogers and Johnny Dodge
Sean winds up for back to back starts with the tale of two friends brought together by baseball and connected forever by one tragic day on the diamond.

107 James "Pud" Galvin
Sean throws a strike with the story of James "Pud" Galvin; a small but mighty pitcher and MLB's first 300 game winner. Galvin's career would be overshadowed by other stars of the 1880's but a revelation from the early 2000's would embroil him in a modern scandal.

106 Benny Meyer
Eds returns to the mound with the story of Benny Meyer, a man that Babe Ruth called “the noisiest coacher in either league," who as a young man was given an ultimatum by his father that set him on a path toward a life of baseball.

105 Wild Bill Hagy
Sean's on the bump with the story of Wild Bill Hagy. One of the original Superfans who led a section of rowdy fans in the bleachers of Baltimore in the late 1970's. Wild Bill's cheers and dancing made him famous before a falling out with the team led to his arrest. His story even inspired an early episode of the Simpsons.

104 The Cheesesteak Challenge
Eds throws a curveball on his way out of town and tells Sean the story of how a veteran ballplayer in the twilight of his career inadvertently started an underground competition by consuming an ungodly number of Philadelphia Cheesesteak sandwiches while riding the bench one weekend; and how since that day a few MLB personnel have gone to great lengths to claim the crown for themselves.
