With special guest Kevin Baker, author of The New York Game: Baseball and the Rise of a New City, Mike and Bill trace the history of the sport in the greatest city in the world, how New York politics shaped it, and how some of the greatest players and managers in history found their way to New York and made it their own.

Plus, happy birthday to Danny Cater and Shannon Stewart!

And farewell to Don Lassetter and Steve Skaggs.
