This week in Starkville, one week of the baseball season is in the books and already so many big moments. Doug was in The Bronx Sunday for Red Sox and Yankees and thinks back to the rivalry he grew up with.  


Then Eduardo Perez joins the show to talk about his baseball journey from being Tony's son to a professional player himself to the broadcast booth. Eduardo and Doug tell stories from their time together at ESPN including their trip together to Cuba with Barack Obama and Rachel Robinson for baseball's return to the island.


Strange But True examines the torrid start to the career of Steven Kwan and Bob Melvin's decision to pull starters from no-hitters on back to back days. All that, plus trivia!
