Short Hops & Tall Tales - Hold on to your handlebars, as this episode is all about scruff. Noah & Brandon dive into the history of one of baseball's most ridiculous team rules: the Yankees' strict facial hair code. Then, we talk (barber) shop and list off some of our favorite all-time baseball whiskers, both past and present. Finally, we wrap things up with a look into one of the most cursed teams in baseball, the 1962 Mets!
