Episode 92 - Former Yankee World Series MVP Ralph Terry Pt 1

We’ve talked to alot of former players, but none of them can boast being named World Series MVP. That is, until now! This week, 1962 World Series MVP Ralph Terry joins us to talk about giving up Bill Mazeroski’s famous Series ending blast in 1960 as well as his incredible Series against the Giants in 1962. In the deciding Game 7 he threw a complete game, 4 hit shutout to win his third World Series. He recounts the games, pitch by pitch as well as tells some really great stories about Mickey Mantle, Casey Stengel and many more. Plus, Wax Pack Heroes takes on 1986 Donruss.

Episode 91 - We Doubleday Dare You!

Just in case you haven’t heard enough about the election, we compare some presidential home run records and remember some other number 46’s. We’ve talked about the Abner Doubleday myth  before, but this week we dive even a little deeper, debunking the Henry Chadwick narrative and introduce Doc Adams who may have been even more influential in the history of baseball. We also look at the games of rounders, townball and even old cat as precursors to today’s game. Plus, Wax Pack Heroes takes on 1990 Fleer.

Episode 87 - Ron LeFlore Or Is That LaVar Burton?

Ron LeFlore is the only player to have lead both leagues in stolen bases. Until this week that was about all we really knew about him. Now, we know alot more. He was discovered while playing in a prison baseball league, because, well, he was in jail. Form the exercise yard to Tiger Stadium LeFlore went on to become an All Star but he could not escape his old life. Hear the whole story or watch the ABC made for tv movie One In A Million. Probably easier to listen to the pod to be honest. Plus, 1988 Fleer s the weapon of choice for this week’s Wax Pack Heroes.

Episode 85 - Boneheads

There’s book smarts, street smarts and then there’s #baseball smarts. Just because you play baseball doesn’t mean you possess the latter. We look at some of the most questionable plays made on the field and even some off. From Babe Ruth to Seattle Mariners managerial legend Maury Wills, we prove that Jose Canseco is not alone when it comes to embarrassing moments on the diamond.     We give the answer to our hardest trivia question ever and continue the new season of Wax Pack Heroes apparently brought to you by the letter “Z”.

Episode 84 - Steve Dalkowski Throws Hard, Can't Aim

A real-life Nuke LaLoosh or maybe Syd Finch, that’s Steve Dalkowski. LaLoosh is even said to be loosely based on the Orioles fireballer who never quit knew where the ball was going to end up. One thing everybody knew though, it was going to get there really fast. Hear about the live arm that made Dalko a legend. Wax Pack Heroes this week sees a couple of packs of 1990 Fleer donated by a listener. Who will strike it rich?
