    S1E7: Breaking the Color Barrier Part 2
    May 11 2025

    Last week I rambled for so long about the establishment of the color barrier in the 1880s that I didn't even get to Jackie Robinson Breaking it. Well, that's what you get this week, but you also get a side track about Big Bill Bevens and the 1947 World Series, and even one about Lippy Leo.

    S1E6: Breaking the Color Barrier Part 1
    May 4 2025

    The color barrier in baseball was broken by Jackie Robinson in 1947, but how did it come to be in the first place? Were there black players in the Major Leagues way back before it began, and who were they? That's what we'll look at today. Also, Armando Marsans and a curious side note.

    S1E5: The 1886 World Series (yep, 1886)
    Apr 27 2025

    The 1886 World Series featured the same teams as 1885- Chicago versus St. Louis. Just like 1885, which we covered in Episode 4, it was an exciting series full of controversy, and with a legendary ending. Also King Kelly, Germany Schaefer, and Will White.
