Two Strike Noise - A Baseball History Podcast

Miscellaneous


Things that aren’t supposed to happen in a domed baseball stadium: -A rain out -A luxury apartment complete with a bowling alley and a gun range -A radio announced calling a game from a box suspended above second base All of these things, as odd as they sound, took place in the Houston Astrodome. This week we look at the history and the oddities of baseball’s first domed stadium. Plus, players who die at sea, Jay Bruce equals Cecil & Prince Fielder before retiring & Mel Ott facts. And as always, we do some junk wax era combat in Wax Pack Heroes with a couple of packs of 1988 Topps.

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.
