BT & Sal dive into the fallout of Giannis Antetokounmpo's calf strain, debating the conspiracy theories about whether the two-to-four-week injury is a power play to force a trade to the Knicks. Sal argues that Jalen Brunson is "untouchable" and that acquiring Giannis now is necessary to maximize the Knicks' championship window. The discussion pivots to the MLB Hot Stove as they examine the odds for several Japanese stars heading to New York. They break down the pursuit of infielder Kaz Okamoto (Yankees favored) and the intriguing pitcher Tatsuya Imai, who declared he wants to "beat the Dodgers." The hosts also weigh the cost of Japanese pitchers, discussing the impact of extra rest days on a team's rotation. The consensus: the Knicks must strike now for a championship, whether with Giannis or another star, as the window is wide open.

How come baseball, that most American of games, is even more popular in Japan than in its home country?  It's a story with roots into the nineteenth century, as Arion, Olly and Rebecca discover while  they investigate the events of September 1st, 1964, when the San Francisco Giants introduced their newest player, Masanori Murakami, during a game against the New York Mets: the first Japanese player in Major League Baseball. His remarkable composure earned him a standing ovation at Shea Stadium. What made this even more impressive was the fact that Murakami had only signed his contract a few hours before - after the Giants found a Japanese translator to ensure he understood what he was agreeing to.  The Retrospectors explain how Murakami's journey to the Major Leagues was almost accidental; discover how an American educator caught a wave of openness in Japan to establish baseball as a martial sport; and reveal why ‘Banzai' Babe Ruth felt personally betrayed by Pearl Harbor…  Further Reading: • ‘How MLB's First Japanese Player Made it to Big Leagues' (HISTORY, 2021): https://www.history.com/news/masanori-murakami-first-japanese-major-league-baseball-player • ‘Opinion | Banzai Babe Ruth: Baseball, Espionage, & Assassination During the 1934 Tour of Japan” by Robert K.
