About this episode

Mike D. and Andy rewatch the 1987 MLB All-Star Game featuring the Cubs' Hall of Famers and discuss the broadcast's quality.

The Cubs sent three Hall of Famers (and Rick Sutcliffe) to the 1987 All-Star Game, and fifth joined as honorary coach. One of them was playing on a bad foot, one of them was in the midst of an MVP season, one of them should have won the Cy Young and the other guy ended up pitching more than anybody else in the game and wore the wrong batting helmet, both for reasons. Join Mike D. and Andy as they rewatch the game, and marvel at just how much a 39 year old NBC broadcast looks and feels as good, if not better than the stuff we're stuck with today.
