    A Lousy Poem Puts People in the Hall of Fame
    2025/10/04

    A poem shouldn’t decide Cooperstown… right? In this episode of Rounding Third, Peter Lemieux digs into the Chicago Cubs’ famous double-play combo—Tinker, Evers, and Chance—and asks whether a catchy 8-line verse helped carry three good players into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Along the way, we revisit the 1908 Merkle game, the Cubs’ World Series run, and why debates over who belongs in Cooperstown never die.

    • The real story behind “Tinker to Evers to Chance” and the 1908 Cubs

  • Who Was Smokey Joe and Why Did Baseball Forget Him?

    Who Was Smokey Joe and Why Did Baseball Forget Him?
    2025/08/29

    Get to know Smokey Joe Williams—the 6’4” right-hander whose fastball terrified hitters, whose barnstorming record humbled MLB greats, and whose legend grew despite baseball’s color line. In this Rounding Third story episode, Peter Lemieux walks through Smokey Joe’s meteoric rise, his duels with stars like Walter Johnson, and the road that ended with a 1999 Hall of Fame induction.

    00:00 Today's Story

    00:25 The Historic First Pitch by President Taft

    02:24 Walter Johnson: The Big Train

    04:02 Introducing Smokey Joe Williams

    05:17 Smokey Joe's Legendary Career

    07:57 Legacy and Recognition

    10:11 Conclusion and Call to Action

    What you’ll learn

    • How Opening Day 1910 (President Taft’s first pitch) sets the stage for Walter Johnson vs. Smokey Joe. 

    • Why contemporaries said the ball “exploded” out of Smokey Joe’s hand (Ty Cobb’s praise). 

    • Barnstorming receipts: wins vs. Grover Cleveland Alexander, Chief Bender, Rube Marquard, and even a 1–0 loss while throwing a no-hitter. 

    • Smokey Joe vs. Satchel Paige (1–0 classic) and his late-career perspective when Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. 

    Why this matters

    Baseball history isn’t complete without the Negro Leagues. Williams’s dominance—strikeouts, complete games, and success against championship MLB teams—puts him in the conversation with the greatest pitchers ever.
