Episode 96 - Baseball Contracts & Merkle’s Boner Replay
Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast12/15/20 • 70 min
The Simpsons, pitching guns powered by gun powder, catching grapefruits from planes is just to wet your appetite. This week we talk about the history of baseball contracts (hint, they have always included some weird things). Plus, we revisit Merkle’s Boner, but this time we talk about the craziness that occurred when they actually had to make up the game that ended in a tie. Finally, in Wax Pack Heroes, we go mano y mano with 2 packs of 1991 Fleer Ultra.

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/
