Ep.116 - Smoky Joe Wood

This is an electric episode... Nick Pivetta made Sox history with 13 Ks, joining Red Sox LEGEND Smoky Joe Wood. We explore the iconic career of Smoky Joe including his heroics in game 8 (yes eight) of the 1912 World Series, and how he inspired Babe Ruth and Shohei Ohtani. We then actually recap the Cubs series, but then start talking about what Dave O'Brien does on vacation. Maybe crack open a ginger ale and play a mean game of scrabble? Next, we beg NESN to hire Jonny Gomes as a sideline reporter and imagine what would happen. And of course, we provide your weekly lesson in Japanese while talking about a travel chamber so Yoshida doesn't get jet lag. This episode is an ALL-TIMER, enjoy!
