Almost Cooperstown
We're a father & son who love to talk and argue about baseball! Baseball is the professional sport that has the longest history so there is a lot to talk about. We launched Almost Cooperstown noting that baseball contains a long history of players that, for whatever reasons, have been shunned by the electors of the Hall of Fame. Consequently here are many 'Almost' players still waiting their turn for induction. With less than 1.5% of the now more than 23,000 players in the HOF, we feel there should be more players included. In these podcasts we also discuss current seasons & trends. Please send any messages to almostcooperstown@gmail.com.

Biggest Baseball Blowouts - Ep. 524
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Last season the Los Angeles #Angels with Shohei Ohtani pounded the Colorado #Rockies 25-1. It was 23-0 in the 4th inning so as we see it a true blowout in which the runs are scored early and often for a team winning by 10 or more runs.
Are blowouts fun for fans? It depends. Losing side managers hate them as the goal becomes save the pitcher arms. But a blowout is still only one loss and baseball always has a game tomorrow.
We discuss blowouts in other sports (is 1-0 really a blowout in soccer?), postseason blowouts and World Series blowouts. Most blowout are forgettable.
