Passed Ball Show

10-12-2019 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this show by reminding all of the viewers that share the birthday of October 12 of the handful of current and former MLB players that have the same birthday. He then makes his rock solid World Series prediction of the Yankees/ Cardinals- teams with a combined 58 League Pennants and 38 World Series Championships. He also talks about the combined twenty (20) World Series losses between the two of them (1921, 1922, 1955, 1957, 1960, 1963, 1968, 1976, 1981, 1985, 2001, 2003, 2004, 2013), not to mention the (CORRECTION: The Yankees and Cardinals have met in the World Series five times {1926, 1928, 1942, 1943, 1968}, not three as John incorrectly stated) times the Yankees and Cardinals have played each other in the fall classic. John then plays a game of musical chairs with the eight managerial vacancies in Major League Baseball. He names eight legitimate candidates and gives each of whom a home. After John's five NFL picks for Week Six, he finishes with a "Nobody's Listening" topic. He gives some attention to the father who did not want his kid to be taught hockey by a darker skinned, Muslim hockey coach.
