In 190, the Philadelphia Athletics were bursting out of tiny Columbia Park — so owner Ben Shibe built the first concrete-and-steel ballpark in Major League history. But on Shibe Park's opening day in 1909, catcher Doc Powers collapsed with mysterious abdominal pain and was dead two weeks later. Jeff and Mark dig into the real medical story behind his death, bust the myths that have followed him for over a century, and trace Shibe Park's full run — from Ruth's Yankees debut and Ted Williams' .400 season, through Jackie Robinson's record-breaking Philadelphia crowd, all the way to a scoreboard literally catching fire mid-game.   Also in this episode: the guys break down the history of the "Maddux" (a complete-game shutout thrown on fewer than 100 pitches), a listener-submitted WAR showdown between the Oakland Athletics and Houston Astros' all-time position players, a new recurring segment pulling quiz questions straight from old episodes of This Week in Baseball, the tragic on-field death of Detroit Lions player Chuck Hughes, and another round of Wax Pack Heroes with a fresh batch of 1972 cards.   00:00 Show Intro and Banter 02:01 100 Loss Teams Trivia 04:35 What Is a Maddux 05:21 Famous Maddux Games 09:32 Listener WAR Showdown 14:38 This Week in Baseball Quiz 16:08 Chuck Hughes Tragedy 18:58 Shibe Park Origins 22:45 Building Shibe Park 29:43 Meet Doc Powers 31:25 Eddie Plank and Patience 32:52 Doc Powers Falls Ill 33:30 Misdiagnosis Turns Deadly 34:36 Surgery and Final Words 35:49 Myths About His Injury 38:19 Funeral and Benefit Day 40:39 Shibe Park Spite Fence 43:25 Famous Games at Shibe 46:51 Final Game and Demolition 47:46 Wax Pack Heroes Returns 01:02:01 TWIB Quiz answer and Signoff   Connect With Us: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise BlueSky: @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Email: twostrikenoise@gmail.com    Don't let your common cards collect dust!

Welcome to the podcast! If it’s your first time here, don’t forget to subscribe or follow wherever you watch or listen. Tim Kurkjian and his son, Jeff, are here to make you laugh, smile, and hopefully learn a thing or two about baseball. We kick things off with the first day of school for Tim’s grandkids and the passing of a legendary country star, which had Jeff—a full-time country music morning show host—very busy on the day of the recording. Our Takeaways include praise for the White Sox and their incredible walk-off wins. Plus, the Brewers are the best team in Major League Baseball, and Tim explains how they’re doing it. Mason Miller finally showed some weakness, while the Royals have accomplished something not many teams 20 games under .500 have done. And, believe it or not, there’s historical precedent suggesting the Red Sox could win it all! The Quirkjians feature a Cal Raleigh and Babe Ruth comparison for the ages. We had no idea Ruth did this at the end of his career! We’re still in shock over games from Randy Arozarena and Pete Crow-Armstrong that have NEVER happened before. And then there’s Young Junk, which Jeff couldn’t get enough of. On This Date in Baseball History, we celebrate Jim Thome’s birthday and a record he holds that Jeff was actually able to guess! Plus, it’s Mike Maddux’s birthday, too. We remember Joe Morgan for what he did back in 1978, and then it’s time for Alphabest! We’re on to the letter W, searching for the best position player and pitcher with a last name beginning with W. Is it Ted Williams or Honus Wagner? Early Wynn or Rube Waddell? Three Cards in the Bathroom takes a look back at some amazing players, with stories that only Tim Kurkjian could come up with. And we wrap things up with Team Tim, focusing on back-to-school season for our kids, parents, and teachers.

John Wesley Hardin, Ted Williams, Enron, North Korea, and a $50 million gift that reshaped healthcare in El Paso all collide in one fast-moving episode about how character, timing, and decision-making change everything. If you like sharp historical stories with real-world business lessons, this one will keep you hooked. Kent opens with a darkly funny story about John Wesley Hardin, then jumps from the printing press and the burning of the White House to modern-day contrasts in justice, bureaucracy, and power. Along the way, the episode connects old frontier violence to today's cultural, political, and economic systems in a way that is equal parts surprising and revealing. You'll discover: Why the printing press was one of the most consequential inventions in history. How South Korean courts, North Korean authoritarianism, and Texas theft laws expose very different ideas about order and enforcement. Why Harvard says job hoppers can become more adaptable employees. how one early-career refusal to forge documents helped shape a billionaire's life what a $50 million gift meant for Texas Tech, the medical school in El Paso, and regional healthcare Kent also revisits the Trammell Crow advice that kept him from joining Enron, then makes the case for why some people and institutions succeed because they stay disciplined when others cut corners. The stories connect through one theme: the long-term payoff of refusing bad deals, staying adaptable, and understanding when a decision is bigger than it looks. You'll also hear an inside look at how major donors, political connections, and internship pipelines shape opportunities at Texas Tech and beyond, plus a hilarious governor-speeding story that shows how even high-stakes situations can turn on timing, trust, and a little luck. Essential listening if you love practical wisdom wrapped in memorable storytelling, especially when the lesson is hidden inside a great anecdote.

​Bryan Kohberger's defense team has recently filed motions to suppress certain evidence ahead of his August 11, 2025, trial for the 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students. A former FBI special agent characterized these efforts as attempts to create an "illusion" of a weak prosecution case, aiming to influence potential jurors. The defense sought to exclude terms like "psychopath" and "sociopath" from the trial, a request partially granted by Judge Steven Hippler, who ruled such labels require expert validation. Additionally, the defense's motion to omit Kohberger's 2020 essay on crime scene handling was denied, and the judge indicated that the 911 call from the victims' roommate would likely be admitted, albeit possibly in a redacted formThe defense also argued that prosecutors were delaying discovery, a claim undermined when they acknowledged receiving all requested materials. Experts suggest these tactics aim to delay proceedings and cast doubt on the prosecution's case. Former FBI agent Jonathan Gilliam noted that the defense appears more focused on portraying the prosecution's case as insufficient rather than asserting Kohberger's innocence. Similarly, former D.C. homicide detective Ted Williams observed that the defense is employing a strategy of challenging various aspects of the case, hoping to find elements that might resonate with the jury.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bryan Kohberger case: Fmr FBI agent says defense is trying to create 'illusion' | Fox News

Randy Jones was a left-handed sinkerball pitcher who became one of the most unlikely stars of 1970s baseball, spending the bulk of his career with the San Diego Padres after being drafted in 1972. Undersized and lacking overpowering stuff, he relied on pinpoint control and a heavy sinking fastball to induce ground balls, leading the NL in wins and ERA in 1975 before an even better 1976, when he went 22-14 with a 2.74 ERA and an NL-record-tying 25 complete games to win the Cy Young Award. That July, he graced the cover of Sports Illustrated under the headline "San Diego's Confounding Randy Jones — Threat to Win 30," a nod to his 16-3 record at the All-Star break, a mark no pitcher has matched since. Elbow trouble eventually diminished his effectiveness, and he finished his career with 100 wins after a trade to the Mets in 1981, but he remained a fixture in San Diego as a broadcaster and ballpark personality, remembered as one of the most beloved Padres in franchise history. Ted Leitner, affectionately known as "Uncle Teddy," served as the radio play-by-play voice of the Padres for 41 seasons from 1980 to 2020, becoming one of the most recognizable figures in San Diego sports — as one local comedian joked, "there are only two kinds of people in San Diego: you either hate Ted Leitner, or you are Ted Leitner." A Bronx native, he paired his baseball duties with a long run as a KFMB-TV sports anchor and as the radio voice of San Diego State football and basketball, while also calling games for the Chargers and Clippers. He's best remembered for his decades-long partnership with fellow Hall of Fame broadcaster Jerry Coleman, together narrating the Padres' pennant runs in 1984 and 1998 and the careers of franchise icons like Tony Gwynn and Trevor Hoffman — a bond Leitner never fully recovered from losing after Coleman's death in 2014. His relationship with Randy Jones ran nearly as deep, dating back almost 50 years to when he covered Jones as the Padres' first true star during his playing days; the two later reconnected as club ambassadors together, with Leitner calling Jones "Mr. Everyman." After stepping away from the booth in 2021, Leitner was inducted into the Padres Hall of Fame in July 2022, cementing his legacy as the connective thread across generations of Padres history. Joining us on Past Our Prime, "Uncle Teddy" Leitner holds court — and folks, holding court is basically his day job. He tells us Randy Jones might've been the most likeable human to ever throw a baseball, a guy so charming he could talk Steve Carlton, Willie McCovey, and other future Hall of Famers into showing up on their pregame show for a soft-tossing lefty who, in his own words, "couldn't break a pane of glass." Case in point: Mike Schmidt once told Jones he should be embarrassed to pitch with stuff that slow — right before Jones went out and shut out the Phillies. Twice. Nothing quite like getting owned by a guy throwing batting practice. Leitner and Jones later became Padres ambassadors together, and Ted doesn't hide how hard it's hit him to lose his old pal — right on the heels of losing another lifelong friend, the legendary Jerry Coleman. And Coleman, it turns out, came with a Hall of Fame connection of his own: a friendship with Ted Williams so tight that Leitner practically got Splendid-Splintered by association with "the greatest hitter who ever lived." There are laughs, there are tears, and there's Ted being Ted for a full hour. It's a Ted Talk, literally, on Past Our Prime — and trust us, you don't want to miss this one.

The strikeout rate continues to be one of the biggest storylines in baseball this season. Plus, remember the name Tyler Tolbert, because he's about to make history!

And can you Weathers this Quirkjian? We're not sure you'll be able to. On This Date features Robin Roberts, Ted Williams, and Alex Rios (no, not Jeff's father-in-law). Plus, Tim shares a hilarious ESPN taxi cab story involving a mistake that any diehard baseball fan could've made...right? The Alphabest letter "P" gives us the perfect excuse to celebrate the incredible career of Albert Pujols while debating which "P" pitcher deserves a spot on the list. Jeff also pulls three cards from the 2001 box for Tim, including one featuring a player whose brother was a Major League umpire—a baseball connection most fans never knew. Finally, a member of the Kurkjian family puts Tim to the test with Team Tim.

What if you could slow down time — without getting into a car accident? In this episode of Fascinating Nouns, host Daniel J. Glenn sits down with psychologist and author Dr. Steven Taylor to explore one of the most fascinating phenomena in human experience: time expansion. We dig into the science behind why time seems to slow to a crawl during car crashes, emergencies, and near-death situations — and why that’s not just a trick of memory. Dr. Taylor shares his own dramatic highway accident, the story of a pregnant woman dodging bullets in slow motion, and a cyclist who calculated how to survive being run over by a truck — all in a matter of seconds. We also break down Taylor’s four laws of psychological time: why time speeds up as we get older, why new experiences stretch time, why absorption makes hours vanish, and why altered states of consciousness can make seconds feel like hours. Plus — how elite athletes like Ted Williams, Lionel Messi, LeBron James, and Michael Jordan may literally experience time more slowly than the rest of us, and how meditation and martial arts can help ordinary people access the same ability. This episode will change the way you think about every second of your day. Topics Covered: What are time expansion experiences & how common are they?

James Wood does the podcast and then goes out and hits a home run. It's science. It happened the last time Bradfo caught up with the Nationals' star, and it repeated once again with this latest sit-down. Before Wood hit his 441-foot blast to lead off his latest game, he chopped it up with Bradfo to talk about the Ted Williams seat, how the 23-year-old's life has changed since he first jumped on BIB and what advice he would give players headed to the All-Star Game for the first time. Bradfo also talks with one of the game's best personalities, Nasim Nunez, who offers up next-level talk regarding his quest to steal 80 bases.

Tim and Jeff Kurkjian sit down with Rich Donnelly, a man with some of the greatest baseball stories you'll ever hear. From Barry Bonds to Ted Williams, every story is a treat for baseball fans of all ages. With the All-Star Game right around the corner, it's the perfect time to celebrate Rich's incredible impact on the Home Run Derby. But his legacy goes far beyond batting practice. As one of the game's best third base coaches, his stories about giving signs, waving runners home, and the split-second decisions that define a game are unforgettable.

In this deeply personal episode of the Thrive Podcast, Dr. Don Immel sits down with Pastor Ted Williams of Tri County Assembly of God to talk about ministry, grief, faith, and the hope found in Jesus Christ.Pastor Ted reflects on nearly 50 years of ministry before sharing the story of his son, Pastor Eric Williams, who faithfully served a congregation in Garden Grove, California. In October 2025, Eric's life was tragically cut short while cycling, leaving behind his wife, four children, and countless lives he had impacted through his faithful ministry.Rather than offering easy answers, Pastor Ted shares the questions he wrestled with, the comfort he found in Christ's suffering and resurrection, and how the gospel became more than a message he preached. It became the foundation that carried him through unimaginable loss.This conversation is a reminder that grief and hope can exist together, that God remains faithful in life's darkest moments, and that even through suffering, He is able to bring purpose, strength, and lasting hope.Listener note: This episode includes themes of grief, sudden loss, and a brief mention of suicide.

Remembering Rob Hahne: Without Him, There Is No UsBroadcasting from "the world's most dangerous youth baseball podcast," host Deven Morgan records on location from the Great Park in Irvine - a $1.2 billion youth sports complex that prompts a hard look at where the game is headed and who it's being built for. He's there because his son drew a Perfect Game UBC invite against elite arms touching 97–98, a showcase he frames as deep learning more than competition. The heart of the episode is a tribute to his friend Rob Hahne, who passed unexpectedly at 57 - the connective force behind the universal pitch count push and the ABCA work that made it real. Deven revisits their last time together at ABCA in Columbus and the gut-punch of returning to the field Rob built for the eulogy, then widens into mortality, the Michael Mann line "time is luck," and the end of Max Rojas's high school career. He closes with a teaser for new, more accessible youth training products and a reminder to tell the people you love them, because you have less time than you think.Timestamps:00:00 On location at the Great Park, Irvine01:00 A $1.2 billion youth complex and what it signals04:00 The "$20 hamburger" and the cost of youth baseball05:30 Access, affordability, and $300K in scholarships06:55 Why we're here: the Perfect Game UBC showcase07:40 Facing 97–98 and the deep learning of elite competition09:54 Losing Rob Hahne 11:00 Rob, universal pitch counts, and the MLB meeting12:18 "I'll never get to thank him again"13:00 ABCA in Columbus: watching Kyle watch his dad16:27 The eulogy and the field Rob built18:22 The stage of life where friends start dying19:21 Miami Vice and "time is luck"20:43 Max Rojas and the end of a chapter22:06 The Ted Williams treatment and why nothing lasts forever24:15 New youth training products coming28:00 Carrying it forward, for Rob29:37 Tell your people you love themLinks:https://t.co/R7TLVHE2EU

George Brett spent 21 years with the Kansas City Royals and never played a single game for anyone else — which in today's era of free agency feels almost quaint. He's the only player in baseball history to win batting titles in three different decades ('76, '80, '90), hit .390 in 1980 — the closest anyone has come to .400 since Ted Williams — and finished with 3,154 career hits before a first-ballot Hall of Fame induction in 1999. Oh, and he led the Royals to their only World Series title in 1985. Not bad for a kid from Hermosa Beach, California. Of course, if you ask most casual fans what they remember, there's a decent chance they skip the batting titles and go straight to the Pine Tar Incident of 1983 — Brett homers off Goose Gossage, the umpire calls him out, and he comes flying out of the dugout in what remains one of the greatest displays of barely-contained human rage in sports history. Frank White had warned him it might be coming, and Brett told him "if they call me out, I'll kill one of those SOB's." Less than a second later he was being physically restrained from doing exactly that to 6'5 home plate umpire Tim McClelland. Back in June of 1976, though, Brett was just 23 years old on the cover of Sports Illustrated, already flashing the talent and competitiveness that would define his career — and Kansas City was clearly building something worth watching. On Past Our Prime, Brett takes us inside all of it — how his brother Ken made him believe a big league career was possible, how rivals like Schmidt, Reggie, and Goose became close friends after years of battles including a bench-clearing brawl with another pal, Graig Nettles of the Yankees, in the '77 ALCS, and why he's called Kansas City home ever since the Royals drafted him in 1971.
