Join in a weekly discussion of the greatest moments in baseball history, complete with a deep dive of the...you guessed it...whole ballgame.  2 geriatric millenials guide you through why baseball, and life, used to be better. 

    Episode 17 - 5/26/2010 - Chicago White Sox @ Cleveland Indians

    Episode 17 - 5/26/2010 - Chicago White Sox @ Cleveland Indians

    We here at The Whole Ballgame pride ourselves on being intellectually honest.  This is a bad one. The ballgame is bad, the players are boring, the announcers are just okay, and if we are being honest- the best part is Joe West and Angel Hernandez. The A*****e Umpires

    Blake and Gabe tackle high magnetic resonance in the atmosphere, tech issues, we explore Shin Soo Choo's alcoholism, Shelly Winters' tits, The 2010 box office, and we are served a stark reminder of how EVERYTHING used to be better. 

    Strap in, its a bumpy one, but you must embrace the pain. You understand.

    Episode 16 - The Umpires - Angel Hernandez and "Country" Joe West

    Intellectual Honesty comes at a premium.  Our two profiles today prove that a lack thereof can only lead to doom.  

    Country Joe West let's it be known that there is but one of him, and we learn that this truly is Angel's world, and we are just living in it.

    Episode 15 - The Whole Ballgame Eulogy Series: Whitey Herzog

    Whitey Herzog: November 9, 1931- April 15, 2024

    Whitey was an original. A beacon of intellectual honesty in a cesspool of frauds, derelicts, and dilletantes.  Today and every day we honor his committment, his honety, his sacrifice. Thank you, Whitey. Rest well.

    Episode 14 - 6/13/1987 - Chicago Cubs @ St. Louis Cardinals

    After a brief hiatus, and some travel in support of the show and in the name of camaraderie, Blake and Gabe are back to dissect a 1987 battle between NL Rivals The Chicago Cubs and The St. Louis Cardinals.  As we take the field, temperatures are near 105 degrees, we have concentrates and liquids flowing, and we are about to learn the meaning of "Whitey Ball".

    Vin is on the call as we enjoy our first NBC game of the week.  Harry pays a visit, we learn of Avian Bird Men, Were-Walruses, and weak chins.  We dive into an overflowing mailbag, discuss our weekend in Philadelphia, our sojourn to the Bronx, and just like every other week, discover why baseball used to be better. All right here on The Whole Ballgame.Oh, and Angel Hernandez sucks. Watch along with us here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kWf8zhpWmp8Email us: thewholeballgame@mail.comHead to the website: www.thewholeballgame.comFollow on Twitter/X : www.x.com/wholeballgame
