In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark explore current events in baseball, including the Mariners' recent challenges, the anticipation for the trade deadline, former MLB stars like Trevor Bauer and Robinson Cano in the Mexican League and they learn about John Coleman and his no good, really bad rookie season (and his modern day counterpart). The main segment is Mark and Jeff each telling three short stories, two of which are true and one that is made up. Can you figure out which is which? Finally, Wax Pack Heroes pits some players from 1991 against each other in a duel to the baseball card death.

We’ve talked about him before but Tim helps us understand why Ol’ Pete so unique, how Pete might have invented the Designated Hitter and is Pete Hall of Fame worthy?Wax Pack Heroes returns with a couple of special packs from a listener with some new names we have defiantly not talked about before.

Episode 252 - Bob Thurman, Negro League Star, Is In How Many Hall of Fames?

This week continue our irrelevant trip through the goofy history of major league baseball. Steve Stone's crystal ball from 1992 seems like it might be a little off regarding Sammy Sosa, we try to put together a GoFundMe for a new, err old, Babe Ruth jersey and find out who did we get on one of our Field of Dreams whiskey. Our main segment is all about a player from the Negro Leagues and eventually big leagues we had not heard about before, Bob Thurman. He played well, all over and with some huge names. Wax Pack Heroes comes down to stirrups. So needless to say, we were both very happy about that, one more than the other, but still happy none the less.

The Wicked Witch Is DEAD errr, RETIRED! This week we discuss the retirement of MLB umpires Angel Hernandez and Paul Emmel, a high schooler who enlisted one of the biggest MLB stars to help him ask a girl to prom, scouting umpires that tip pitches. They also dive into various baseball history topics, including debates about the best second baseman, stories of Mike Marshall, Todd Burns, and Deion Sanders' debuts, and the Griffey father-and-son shared date? The episode ends with a deep dive on newly integrated Negro League stats into MLB records and a spirited game of 'Wax Packs Heroes'. No AI was used in the making of this episode, but a lot of it was to write this summary. All hail our new robot overlords.

Wow, 250 baseball history episodes and they haven’t fired us yet. Alot to get though this week. Khrush Davis crushes cars now, the next gen baseball card relics, more whiskey content but this time baseball related, the weekly Seinfeld story and some ideas to keep pitchers healthy. Our main segment is all about 250. We look at a bunch of players who totaled 250 at something during their careers. Some are surprising and others are Sam Horn.

As long as there’s baseball there’s going to new baseball history and this week we’ve got new Topps cards for, checks notes, hot dogs? We have a JJ Hardy landscaping update, a leftover 420 thought that could revolutionize jerseys (they can’t get any worse), we rag on John Fisher, again, plus we got some good debuts to discuss. In our Tales segment Mark highlights a 5 tool prospect who left us too early, we get to the bottom of Rod Murphy’s 1990Upper Deck baseball card and we remember a minor league games (not involving Cal Ripken) that didn’t want to end and what one fan had to do to catch the end of it.Wax Pack Heroes includes a special pack sent to us by a listener which let us talk about some players we haven’t brought up before. Thanks top listener Andrew Harner!
