I've never seen, 'He's Just Not That Into You' before. Apparently, neither have the #Phillies

I did have a version of a question that basically asked if he owned another team, would he vote yes if the Orioles owner wanted to move the O's. Since he wouldn't commit to saying Fisher didn't meet his own definition of what an owner should be, I didn't ask it.

Two Strike Noise @twostrikenoise.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

If we had been talking to John Fisher, well, we would never have even started recording because I would have just let him have it. I'll say it again, all owners are bad. No matter how much they spend on your team, they're bad. But I get it.

Spoiler alert! Without making sure we never get another high-profile guest, we were trying to ask the questions we wanted to but he's never going to give us the answers we want. I am disappointed we didn't offer 'Oriole Magic' as the 7th inning song though. Also, #FJF

2 idiots from a baseball history podcast accidentally(?) got time with an actual MLB owner. Judging from his reaction seeing us, somebody’s getting fired. Orioles owner David Rubenstein on the Adley trade, 7th inning stretch, & the A's leaving Oakland. open.spotify.com/episode/7xvE...

The 'taint'. They should just say 'the taint' and everybody is going to know what it is. Fewer words, don't have to say the word 'anus' or 'genitals', end of story.

Sounds like he took inspiration from Tony Mullane. I think Ward was probably a better person though, hard not to be compared to Mullane.

Marshall was gracious enough to join us a while ago and talk about his book and the 1985 WS. Make sure to pick it up AND go back and listen to our chat. Are you team 'The Heat Is On' or 'Let's Go Crazy'?

Once again. There is literally no question Jay Baller is not the correct answer.

Ernest Hemingway once challenged Dodgers pitcher Hugh Casey to "spar for fun," sucker-punched him before he even had his gloves on, and then got the crap beat out of him in his own living room. New episode's up just for you to listen! 🥊 open.spotify.com/episode/102X...

I can't disagree. Let's check back in 20 years though to see how he actually measures up against Rickey offensively. Defensively, PCA will obviously take that.

False! The correct answer is ofcourse, Jay Mother F'in' Baller!

Politics has always sucked, but compared to the soul-sucking sh!tshow of today, the entire floor of the Senate used to be able to agree that wood baseball bats should forever remain an American right. This started because of a This Week In Baseball April Fools joke. So yeah, they were always stupid.

We mentioned Remington Steele on this week's pod. I mean, are you a real baseball history podcast if you don't mention Remington Steele at least once? So, here's a picture of him (or 007, not sure) with The Mick & Whitey Ford. open.spotify.com/episode/2ZaV...

Tired of watching baseball where all the players live to play the next game? For the second week in a row, we've got you! Powers was Eddie Plank's catcher, because nobody else wanted to be. He was also apparently not a great doctor. open.spotify.com/episode/2ZaV...

Via @baseball-reference.com , Greg Maddux threw 13 career ‘Maddux’ games. He had 2 thrown against him. 7-8-94, Bob Tewksbury out ‘Maddux-ed’ Maddux, Greg went the entire 9 but lost 2-0. Tewksbury's thrown the third most ‘Maddux’ games with 6. Zane Smith has 7 'Maddux's.

1986 WS Game 2, Steve Garvey & Jay Johnstone toast in the stands, celebrating another successful season of Garvey fathering kids to women he wasn't married to. Johnstone was actually celebrating having left Tommy Lasorda locked in another room back in LA.

Continuing my 1986 WS rewatch, you can see the exact moment Billy Joel realized Christie Brinkley did not indeed have express written consent from MLB.

Maybe a cameo, a name drop? I haven't watched that movie in like 20 years but don't remember one off the top of my head.

This is the only Tom Cruise movie I have been able to find with any sort of baseball reference in it, the baseball bat. I have asked many times if anybody can come up with any others and nobody can. I refuse to believe it though.

Technically, as far as I'm concerned, you don't need a second one.

How does he swing the bat without knocking over the wickets? He's so close to them. I freaking love cricket. Not as much as baseball, but it's getting there. And I also love Conan.

My all-time favorite Eddie Murray fact. He was charged with insider trading in 2012 by the Securities and Exchange Commission, because he refused to testify against former teammate Doug DeCinces.

Let's be honest, we know how the Padres new ownership and any other old or new MLB ownership will respond to something like this. The barest minimum to say something, meanwhile they're in bed with all the other 1% that have this on their to-do list and voted for it.

My boy! Mark and I were at WSU at the same time. He only played baseball my senior year. I did women's volleyball & basketball and then men's baseball team on the radio. So I only got to call his games for one season. He is always my two-sport guy!

Rewatching the 1986 World Series. Halfway through Game 2. Boggs (RIP) defense so far has been unbelievable. Forgot how many hits/runs he took away in this series. Hendu & Dewey also, nothing drops in CF/RF. Vin & Garagiola calling the game & so many calls that would've been overturned by challenges.

On the heels of finding out PCA doesn't believe Babe Ruth actually existed (the reasoning is even stupider than the statement if possible), here's PCA doing a very Ruthian thing. Getting thrown at twice, didn't charge, just hit a piss-missle on the next pitch.

Wildest brawl I've seen in a while. Probably for a stupid of a reason like getting made about a bunt in the 6th inning. I love baseball but man, it's so stupid sometime.
