Episode 35 - Tales from the Dugout v6

How long do you think walk up music for batters has been around? A decade? Maybe two? Try a century! We explore the Royal Rooters of Boston. Mazel tov! The Israeli team has become the first team to qualify for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics baseball tournament. A former member of the Israeli national team, Adam Greenberg faced only a single pitch in his MLB debut in 2005. Unfortunately it hit him in the head. Thanks to a fan sourced effort, he made it back for another AB in 2012! And it was bound to happen! A coach was tossed for arguing automated balls and strikes in the Atlantic League. Wait until you hear who it was. Plus, we pull our most valuable card ever in wax pack heroes!
