It's no secret that your hosts, Mike and Bill, have a strong connection to Minnesota baseball. So, in what's probably the second most self-indulgent episode to date, they recount the history of the sport in their home state, of the Washington Senators and the move that quickly provided their new fan base with a pennant winner on the 59th anniversary of the first big league game played in Minnesota. Plus, happy birthday to Jose Cruz Jr and Frank Viola.
