Episode 234 - Big-ish Ed Walsh

Alot of voting going on this week. Hall of Fame, Veteran’s Committee and Japan’s GQ Man of the Year. We discovered a really cool new map tool from SABR, we root for John Smoltz and put a date on the calendar for a great new event MLB is holding in Cooperstown next year. 
Our main story this week is about Hall of Famer Big Ed Walsh. Big Ed literally pitched until his arm fell off. But before it did he was one of the best pitchers in the league. His spitball was as prolific as his innings pitched totals. And finally Wax Pack Heroes is back as we wind down the season. Some 2003 Topps give us some good names and great stories. 
And don’t forget to fill out the 2SN HOF ballot. Your vote could be the difference between Brandon Phillips getting into the HOF or not!
Don’t forget, you can leave us a message at 607-216-8811.

We pull ALOT of commons in Wax Pack Heroes. If you've got those Tom Foley or Ernest Riles cards just sitting around you can donate those commons to charity and maybe spark a child's interest in baseball and collecting. Find out more here: http://commons4kids.org/
