  • Infinite Inning 374: The 100th Anniversary of the 1927 Yankees One Year Early
    2026/05/09
    We go back to the early days of the Angels (California, Los Angels, Anaheim, or anywhere in-between) for the untimely death of a pitcher, then look forward to next year, when one of the most famous and consequential baseball teams of all time will mark its 100th anniversary. What will Major League Baseball or the Yankees do about it? Why is it the first such team to merit such an occasion? And how do you mark the occasion when members started dying off right after the championship was won? Also: A big day for Ty Cobb and a less salubrious 1920s “achievement” is observed.

  • Infinite Inning 373: Baseball and Helen's Missing Cup
    2026/05/02
    Two managers dropped this week, but four teams haven’t fired a manager in-season since the last century. Which were they, and is there even a point? Then we travel back to 1887, the ill-fated marriage between a Hall of Famer and an actress, her personal gift to baseball, and the birth of a character type whose time has come again (no matter what anyone says).

  • Infinite Inning 372: The Yankees' Owner’s Mistress and the Bomb
    2026/04/25
    A major metropolitan newspaper contends a pitcher “blows,” while he insists he is in “the best shape of his life.” Which would prove to be closer to the truth? Then we revisit the birth of the atomic bomb, the Yankees’ decision to start a farm system in spite of their wealth, and the mysterious woman whose very existence might have hinted at undisclosed cash-flow problems on the part of a very wealthy man.
