Episode 28: The Ohtani Standard (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Los Angeles 2022 Angels and the Florida 2008 Marlins collide in a matchup fourteen years in the making — two ballclubs from wildly different eras, one built around a pair of singular talents, the other built to grind out wins with depth and power up and down the lineup. At the center of it all is Shohei Ohtani, doing something no player in this tournament has attempted: starting games on the mound and deciding them at the plate, sometimes in the same afternoon. Mike Trout supplies the thunde
Episode 27: Whiteyball Meets Its Match (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two teams, two eras, one collision twenty-one years in the making. The 1982 St. Louis Cardinals arrive as legitimate World Series champions, built by manager Whitey Herzog on a philosophy that had almost nothing to do with the long ball. Speed on the bases, elite defense up the middle, and just enough pitching to make it all hold together — that was “Whiteyball,” and it was enough to win it all. Ozzie Smith turned shortstop into an art form, Willie McGee announced himself as a St. Louis institut
Episode 26 - A Tale of Two Washingtons (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The nation’s capital has never lacked for baseball history, but it has rarely produced a matchup quite like this one. In this episode, we travel back to nineteen fourteen, where the legendary Walter Johnson, the Big Train himself, anchors a Washington Nationals ballclub built on speed, contact, and one of the most feared arms the game has ever seen. Standing across the diamond, fifty-five years later, is an entirely different Washington team: the nineteen sixty-nine Senators, led by Ted Williams
Episode 25: The Kid Named Clemens (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A twenty-one-year-old right-hander takes the mound in Boston with everything still ahead of him — a blank page, a live arm, and the kind of upside that only comes along once a generation. Across the diamond waits a hitter already at the peak of his powers, the best all-around season his franchise has ever produced. Two eras, two ballparks, and one best-of-seven series to decide who moves forward and who’s gone from this tournament for good. Plus: four more series from this section, including a n
Episode 24 - Tinker To Evers To A Mets Chance (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two teams. Over a century apart. One tournament that doesn’t care what era you’re from. In this episode, the Chicago 1911 Cubs step into the batter’s box against the New York 2023 Mets, a collision between the dead-ball discipline of Frank Chance’s champions-in-waiting and a modern lineup built on raw power and record-setting ambition. Mordecai Brown and his curveball anchor one side of this matchup; Francisco Lindor and a Mets roster loaded with star power anchor the other. This is Field of Dre
