Due to some technical difficulties in the recording this week Sean and Eds are forced to revisit an episode from January of 2021. Sean and Eds record remotely this time as the number of Covid-19 cases is on the rise. Sean listens through the power of the internet as Eds tells the tale of baseball's one millionth run scored, how 4 men had their chances to ink their name to the pages of oddball history and how the contest was decided by a foot race 2400 miles apart.

Sean tosses a curveball with the story of one of the first famous fans of the game; "Howlin'" Hilda Chester. Hilda lived a rough life but found solace in the bleachers of Ebbets Field screaming at her beloved Brooklyn Bums. Soon she was as big of a story as the Dodgers and became part of the team. That is until they broke her heart in 1957.

As Sean and Eds enjoy the All Star Break we turn back the clock to July of 2021 when they welcomed friend and former high school baseball teammate Matt Marchese (host of The FAN Hockey show, former producer of Prime Time Sports at Sportsnet 590 The Fan & writer for Sportsnet) to the podcast as Eds stumbles upon another story; this time with a local twist. A tale from the nebulous depths of baseball history that tells how the meteoric rise of a man who shovelled his way to the major leagues from the train yards to the ball fields was ultimately stymied in a surprisingly spectacular fashion.
