Pete Rose's Exile, Early Wynn's Stockpile, and My Mom Denise's Life Was Entirely Worthwhile

This week we discuss the removal of Pete Rose from the ineligible list for baseball and his potential inclusion. Do we ultimately think he deserves a spot or should his punishment remain in perpetuity? For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the Joe Cronin hitting his 3rd three-run home run in 4 pinch hit at-bats in 1943. We use this a segue to speaking about player mangers, their history, how it worked, and if we think it would ever be one again and why.

Our Hall of Famer this week is pitcher Early Wynn. He was a 300 game winner, but was that enough to earn him our blessings for the Hall of Fame?

In our singlular parting shot his week we eulogize Denise, mine and Josh's mom and and our father Frank's wife and best friend who died on May 25th. We share some memories and talk about how much we loved her.

Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials with baseball MJ for McDonald;s, Wheaties cereal, and avoiding alcohol at ballgames.

Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.
