Before he was a two-time World Series champion and four-time All-Star, Pepper Martin was jumping freight trains to spring training to save a dime. After he retired, he was choking out an umpire in Havana. In between: smoke bombs disguised as a fire emergency, a painting crew that wasn't hired to paint, a hospital room cowboy band concert nobody asked for, a stint running an Oklahoma City hockey team, and a batting line across two World Series that's still a Major League record today. Jeff traces the full career of Johnny Leonard Roosevelt "Pepper" Martin — the Wild Horse of the Osage — from a cotton farm in Temple, Oklahoma to a fistfight in Cuba, with stops at Comiskey Park, the Bellevue-Stratford Hotel (twice), and Branch Rickey's office. Also in this episode: Jeff and Mark remember Blue Jays closer Duane Ward, who passed away at 62 during a reunion for Toronto's back-to-back championship teams. A position player picks up a two-RBI single off a catcher making his first career pitching appearance. Mets utility man Jose Iglesias/Canelita heads to Broadway for the Buena Vista Social Club musical. And Wax Pack Heroes returns with a batch of 1972 Topps cards sent in by a listener.

Episode 354 features New York Mets legend Roger McDowell and coauthor Doug Feldmann as they share stories from Hot Foot: My Hijinks and Upside-Down Life with the World Champion New York Mets. Then, Jimmy Carbone joins the conversation to talk about his incredible year so far and give a preview of the upcoming Pig Island barbecue celebration. Roger McDowell and Doug Feldmann join us to discuss the book they coauthored, Hot Foot: My Hijinks and Upside-Down Life with the World Champion New York Mets. The following is taken from the internet, "Roger McDowell dishes on everything from the New York Mets to Seinfeld in this lively new memoir. Over the course of Roger McDowell's twelve-year career in Major League Baseball, the laughs were never in short supply. His teammates were always on guard, careful not to become the next victim of his dreaded "Hot Foot." McDowell's fun-loving nature, however, was matched only by his tenacity on the pitching mound. Praised as a "battler" and a "gamer" by those same pranked teammates, Roger was all business when he went out between the lines. Priding himself on toughness and reliability, McDowell's 723 big league appearances from 1985 to 1996 were exceeded only by Lee Smith during those years. Responding to every challenge even on the grandest of stages, he helped the irascible 1986 New York Mets fight their way past other teams – and each other – toward a World Series title. Now, forty years later, Roger discusses his earliest beginnings in the game, his climb to professional baseball, and then brings the reader onto the 1986 Mets' roster for all the bus rides, dugout jokes, and locker room antics." Jimmy Carbone is back and we get the chance to catch up on his very busy year as well as discuss his upcoming event, Pig Island NYC.

C-Lo's back with the Yankees losing to the White Sox in 12 innings. Cam Schlittler pitched well but was pulled in the seventh. Aaron Boone has had enough with the Giancarlo Stanton questions. Don Mattingly was not happy with Bryce Harper's comments about the trade deadline. Jerry said Mattingly is making something out of nothing.
C-Lo starts with Morash fighting with a caller about the Titans coming in to play the Giants in week3 if the Giants are 0-2. We then heard old audio of C-Lo going off script and it not going well. Carson Benge had the go ahead RBI in game 1 of the doubleheader.

Brodes hosted on WIP after the Phillies were swept by Marlins. Dave/Mattingly/Bryce are embarrassing themselves.
Jones and Keefe go on the clock making predictions for the Red Sox trade deadline. Keefe wants them to go big and trade for Bobby Witt Jr. Jones thinks Craig Breslow stays aggresive and calls the Mets for Francisco Lindor and Freddy Peralta. What will the Sox do with Jarren Duran?
Evan Roberts refuses to believe Mason Miller is truly available, setting off a battle with Shaun Morash over the Yankees' biggest potential trade deadline prize. Evan accepts a double loss if Miller is traded to New York, while Tiki Barber weighs in on a bullpen that has already become one of baseball's best. Gerrit Cole's dominant return, Jazz Chisholm's game-changing defense and a vulnerable American League leave the Yankees looking increasingly dangerous. The conversation turns to the Jets using artificial intelligence, whether AI can ever be trusted with football decisions and why organizational history makes that especially terrifying. Evan, Tiki and Shaun also debate whether the Mets are cursed, Juan Soto returning for meaningless September games, the threat of no baseball in 2027 and a daylight-saving argument that becomes one of the most heated fights of the hour.
A caller claims we've never seen photo's of Juan Soto's girlfriend which prompts another caller to check in with some wild claims.
Starting pitcher Tarik Skubal took the mound on Wednesday at Comerica Park with his future very much up in the air. With the trade deadline rapidly approaching this Monday, many in the stands and around the baseball world wondered if this would be the two-time Cy Young Award winner's final start for the Detroit Tigers. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss why this could be the end of the line for Skubal in Detroit, as the Tigers continue to mull whether they will trade their ace despite still being in a postseason push. The guys then determine which team makes the most sense to acquire Skubal and what a potential trade package could look like if the Tigers decide to pull the trigger before Monday's 6 p.m. ET deadline. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan try to identify the one player that the New York Mets, San Francisco Giants, Kansas City Royals, Toronto Blue Jays, and other probable sellers will trade by Monday, and why now could be the perfect time for each club to think about the future. They close the show by taking a look at the current state of the Seattle Mariners following their first win at Dodger Stadium since 2009, Shohei Ohtani's biceps becoming a bit of a concern and an early look at the upcoming 30 for 30 podcast about the Ohtani-Ippei betting scandal. 1:58 – The Opener: Skubal's farewell? 10:48 – Who are the Skubal buyers? 34:02 – We Need To Talk About: Which players are the sellers trading? 53:23 – Around The League: Mariners vibe check 1:03:24 – Shohei Ohtani has a biceps problem 1:07:11 – Ohtani-Ippei 30 for 30 podcast Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

The Yankees may have survived without Aaron Judge, but Shaun Morash warns their current lineup still has far too many dead spots to win in October. Evan Roberts points to the offense's dominant production before Judge went down, while the debate turns to whether Brian Cashman needs a major bat or a realistic addition such as Lane Thomas. Evan, Tiki Barber and Shaun also predict Cody Bellinger's return date before making their biggest trade deadline calls.
Evan Roberts, Tiki Barber, and Shaun Morash debate the timeline for Cody Bellinger's return from injury and potential Yankees trade targets like Lane Thomas. They also analyze the likelihood of stars like Tarik Skubal being moved before the deadline while reacting to the postponement of the Mets game. They shift to lighthearted topics including the viability of a WFAN basketball team and stadium voucher loopholes. 01:50 - Chicago Road Trip Logistics 04:55 - Cody Bellinger Return Predictions 08:03 - West Coast Road Trips 11:14 - Yankees Trade Deadline Outlook 17:04 - Tarik Skubal Trade Rumors 24:07 - Vita Vea Trade Demands 27:53 - Mets Stadium Voucher Strategy 33:36 - WFAN Lineup Basketball Debate 42:46 - Alien Life Space Debate
Evan Roberts unloads on Plaxico Burress for comparing his lone season with the Jets to being in prison. Evan argues that Burress joined a team coming off back-to-back AFC Championship appearances, not the hopeless modern Jets, and says the 2011 squad choked away its season after starting 8-5. Tiki Barber finds the joke funny but acknowledges it was a cheap shot, sparking a debate over whether Jets history has been unfairly rewritten. Evan also explains why a strong second half from Francisco Lindor could transform the Mets' options without making a trade inevitable. Plus, a lost phone creates a Citi Field bathroom dilemma, a Yankees caller pushes Evan into a regrettable Bernie Williams insult, and the crew marvels at former Giants and Jets who are somehow still in the NFL. LeBron James choosing Philadelphia over Golden State also leads to a blunt conclusion about Steph Curry and the fading Warriors.
Posted and Toasted returns with a collection of old posts that somehow gets stranger with every reveal. Evan Roberts quizzes Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash on John Harbaugh's cluttered draft setup, New Jersey gas stations, Boomer Esiason's inexplicable Westminster Dog Show tweet and Evan's unforgettable theory about a sex doll named Gertrude. The conversation also turns to electric cars after Evan reveals he is finally making the switch, before a caller proposes a bold Mets trade for Tarik Skubal with the goal of securing a contract extension before a potential lockout. Evan explains why the creative plan is unnecessary and why Skubal would still be destined to test free agency.
Evan Roberts unloads on Plaxico Burress for comparing his 2011 season with the Jets to prison, arguing that Burress joined a championship-caliber team coming off back-to-back AFC title game appearances. Tiki Barber laughs at the joke but agrees it ignores the reality of a Jets team that started 8-5 before collapsing and beginning a brutal stretch of franchise failure. Evan also explains why Francisco Lindor's second half could reshape the Mets' future, whether Lindor stays or raises his trade value. A lost phone creates a Citi Field bathroom dilemma, while a Yankees caller sparks a heated argument over Hal and George Steinbrenner, Carlos Beltran and Bernie Williams. Evan admits he went below the belt, then reveals the childhood incident that started his bizarre Bernie grudge.
