Patrick pitches to Alex a tale of baseball uniform predictions as they analyze the 1998 and 1999 Turn Ahead the Clock promotions. In this episode we untuck our shirts, turn our caps backwards, and spray our cleats silver as we look back at what baseball thought the unis of the future might look like. This episode is decidedly NOT sponsored by Century 21, Nike, Kroger, or Crypto.com.
Theme Song is Satellites by Swenny.
