In this week's episode of 'Two Strike Noise', hosts Jeff and Mark dive into the latest baseball history including synchronized World Series walkoffs, turtlenecks are cool again and we just missed out on another award. This week’s main topic centers on the iconic Philadelphia Phillies mascot, the Philly Phanatic. We reminisce about the mascots' memorable antics, including run-ins with players like Lonnie Smith and managers such as Tommy Lasorda. The episode then shifts gears to the internationally famous Wax Pack Heroes segment, where we open baseball card packs from 1990 tops, compete in a stat-based game, and relive major league moments.
