Almost Cooperstown
We're a father & son who love to talk and argue about baseball! Baseball is the professional sport that has the longest history so there is a lot to talk about. We launched Almost Cooperstown noting that baseball contains a long history of players that, for whatever reasons, have been shunned by the electors of the Hall of Fame. Consequently here are many 'Almost' players still waiting their turn for induction. With less than 1.5% of the now more than 23,000 players in the HOF, we feel there should be more players included. In these podcasts we also discuss current seasons & trends. Please send any messages to almostcooperstown@gmail.com.

Is the MLB All-Star game still worth playing? - Ep. 413
The 1st MLB All-Star game was played 90 years ago in 1933. As it is today the American League played the National League. The players really wanted to win the game since they were paid more if they did win and league supremacy was much more important than it is today. Even if the MLB ASG is the best of the 4 major U.S. sports, could it be made better by making a few changes? 90 years is a long time to do anything the same way!
