A correction from Jesse: The rainout in Baltimore was on September 29, 1999, bumping Mike Mussina’s last start of that season, not his final start as an Oriole, which would be the following year. Mussina and Scott Kamieniecki combined to shut out the Yankees in the opener of the following day’s doubleheader.
Everything else in this episode is, of course, completely factual and based in reality, including the invitation to Shaquille O’Neal to come on the show and talk soda and the Yankees’ former use of a bullpen Cadillac.
