Starkville | Evan Drellich explains why Astros' stigma still haunts them & Playoff Chaos!
About this episode
PLAYOFF BASEBALL CHAOS! Jayson and Doug from Starkville's Playoff Baseball Chamber of Madness react to all the "ground rule" mishaps, the Garcia cloning methods, and the running lane controversies! The Athletic's Evan Drellich, and soon-to-be author of a book about the 2017 Houston Astros, is on deck to explain why the Astros' stigma remains pervasive in baseball. Was Ryan Tampera justified in hinting at Houston doing "some shady stuff"? Will the Astros Scarlet Letter ever fade? A home run of a trivia segment is followed by a playoff edition of Strange But True!
