This week we learned about Herman “Germany” Shaefer, the original Clown Prince of Baseball, and one of the few who actually did call a homerun before hitting it, not after the fact because it made a great story (Babe Ruth)!

I don't want to say we killed it this week, but we killed it this week. Doing a podcast about old players pays off! My Starting9 Stats-> Series W-L: 9-0 Career W-L: 77-13, Current Streak: 22! Play Starting9 here --> starting9.vercel.app

Latest Windows update (that I didn't ask for) has reset all of my streaming settings so no stream today, but the streak remains intact! Not my best effort but we're winners regardless! Daily Walkoff ⚾️ Athletics #173 🦾 🟡🟡🟢🟢 ⚪️⚪️🟢🟢⚫️ 🟡🟡🟢🟢 🟢🟢🟢🟢🚀 dailywalkoff.com

Bad news for MLB, the Dodgers add more depth, signing Tony Danza, who earlier played for the Cardinals under the name Anthony Morton "Tony" Micelli before suffering a shoulder injury. It appears he's been a housekeeper somewhere in New England & some say they think he did some boxing before that.

Who would you rather face? I'm guessing Tommy might not have the velocity, but he probably has more "foreign substances" on him than Eddie Harris in Major League.

Listen, I was already going, but now, I am excited. One of those never a superstar guys who I always liked. I was going to call him the definition of WAR but he has a lifetime 6.7 WAR!

It's more important than ever to recognize #BlackHistoryMonth, so I'll be sharing my SABR stories that prominently feature Black players throughout February. Recognizing Michael Jordan -- the baseball player -- on his 62nd birthday. sabr.org/gamesproj/ga...

What did you miss on this week's pod if you haven't already listened? DYK - There is only ONE player in MLB history with the given name Corky. Let's talk about him and his 80-grade facial hair. Listen to the full episode here - open.spotify.com/episode/4u81...

Ron Guidry came to do three things. Ice his elbow, eat ribs and kick ass. Bad news for hitters, Gator only has one rib left.

I know the Twins shaking hands logo has been around for a while, but can we just update it so it's always The Rat and Puck? Citizens of Minneapolis and St Paul, what say you?

@baseball-reference.com @stathead.com It doesn't look like the % of games played parameter is not working on StatHead? Or am I just not understanding how it should work?

Things you will learn about on the pod this week: -Who is the only MLB player with the given name Corky? -The Pocatello Giants should screen their PA position much better -Whitey Herzog should probably not worry about an indy, single A team, yet he did open.spotify.com/episode/4u81...

Brilliant, I mean not if you're an Angels fan, but still... anthonyrendonthefttracker.com

Still sad 😔

Can we normalize strange pre-game promotions including both animals & players? Pace of play, salary caps & defensive shifts are not important. Livestock on the field before a game most definetly are.

I like to think this is 2 hours after a game that Gorman Thomas just fell asleep during and nobody bothered to wake him. His teammates quietly snickering as they tiptoed past him to the clubhouse. Hopefully it wasn't a getaway day.

NFL is in the books. Time to get yourself ready for Spring Training by playing Starting9! Games for the Week of February 10th have been posted. There is a Negro Leagues Game in this set and a Cycle by an HOF. BEWARE we even stumped @aharner.bsky.social with one game. starting9.vercel.app

Was Charlie Ferguson, Shohei Ohtani, 150 years before Shohei Ohtani was Shohei Ohtani? Charlie starred on the mound & at the plate just like Ohtani, and might have had the best last season of a career, ever! Catch our new video for more, youtu.be/rVGYnuQVqqo
