## Resource

This Halloween, Two Strike Noise digs into the eerie side of America’s pastime — haunted ballparks, ghostly players, and one pitcher who went by so many names they just called him Mysterious Walker. Jeff & Mark unearth the weirdest stories ever to cross the foul line: Boris Karloff playing baseball in full Frankenstein makeup Night-shift ghosts at the Baseball Hall of Fame Ghoulish player names and cursed team legends that feel too strange to be true Then it’s back to reality — sort of — with another round of Wax Pack Heroes, opening vintage cards and revisiting cult favorites like Al Newman and Pete Incaviglia. If you like baseball, Halloween, or stories that make you say “that can’t be real,” this is your episode. 00:00 Introduction and Halloween Special Announcement01:20 World Series Ring Raffle and Spooky Baseball Quotes02:56 Hollywood's Monsters Love Baseball08:23 Haunted Baseball Hall of Fame10:53 Spooky Baseball Names17:46 The Mysterious Life of Frederick Mitchell Walker33:01 Wax Pack Heroes: Opening the 1987 Tops Pack56:50 Wrapping Up and Final Thoughts YouTube - www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoiseTwitch - https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoiseBluesky - @twostrikenoise.bsky.socialFacebook -https://www.facebook.com/TwoStrikeNoise/Instagram - @twostrikenoiseE-mail - twostrikenoise@gmail.com We pull ALOT of commons in Wax Pack Heroes.
