Hello and welcome back to Crime in Sports. Yay!

Yeah, indeed, Jimmy. Yay indeed. My name is James Petrogallo. I'm here with my co-host. I'm Jimmy Westman.

Thank you, folks, for joining us today. Another wild edition of Crime in Sports. We have a crazy thing.

We have a crazy thing. We are like, why would you do that? What the fuck is your problem? This is one of those stories where I'm so happy we're continuing Crime in Sports in this way because it's not a story we could have told in the old three-hour format.

It wouldn't have worked. It's too short, but it's crazy and funny and awesome and we need to hear about it. Let's get into it real quick. Before we do that, go head over to shut up and give me murder.com. Get your tickets. Cleveland, we're coming to you.

February the 10th, small town murder. Live, come out there. Get your tickets right now. Still a few tickets left there. St. Louis, even all the couple of singles that were there sold out. That is totally sold out.

We had an extra shows in Seattle and Portland, so check those out if you were bummed that those were sold out pretty fast. Get in there. Thank you everybody for getting your tickets so quickly.

You guys are awesome in Pittsburgh and Detroit. Also, we are coming to you with obviously there too. Shut up and give me murder.com is where you do that. Patreon.com slash crime in sports.

Oh, baby, that's where you get all of the bonus material. Anybody five dollars or above, that's a cup of coffee. Everybody, Jesus Christ.

You're going to get so much bonus material. You're going to get the whole back catalog like 150 episodes and every other week you were going to get two new episodes, one small town murder, one crime in sports. You get it all this week for crime in sports.

What we're going to talk about is 10 cent beer night and how well that went.

You could have murdered you can unlimited unlimited amount of beer. This was for a dime a piece. So obviously by the end of the night, things were on fire.

And it's clear I could have told you that was going to happen. Anybody could have before it happened, but they did that. And then for small town murder, we will talk about small town scams, which I'm so excited about because I love hearing about these like, you know, in the in the 20s, they would send like pamphlets back east to show how beautiful all this land was and you know,

live a new life and then they get there. It's just a rocky dusty shit hole. The people who sold it to them are like long gone on an island somewhere. It happens so often in its hilarious. We'll talk all about that. Patreon.com slash crime in sports is where you get that. And more of course all sorts of shit. So that said, let's get to it.

What do you say? All right, let's do this Jimmy. We got this week for you. There's a lot of name here. This is quite the handle. Julio Sagundo Machado Rondon.

Julio Rondon. No, it's not. It's actually Julio Machado. He doesn't use the wrong Julio Machado. Do you remember him at all? No, but he sounds beautiful. It's a, yeah, Julio Sagundo Machado. It's majestic. Isn't it? It sounds pretty goddamn cool. But this guy here.

Weird thing with this guy because he like he's one of these guys that was barely around in baseball. Very short, but for some reason I remember him extremely clearly I could have drawn you. I could have drawn you.

I could have had a sketch artist. Draw you up a sketch that would have had this guy caught in about three minutes. Yeah, he was a picture. And I don't I don't know how because he barely pitched. It's so strange.

What he pitched all now six foot tall, not a big giant guy, but he pitched at the time he pitched for a year for the Mets and a year for the Brewers as we'll talk about. And when he pitched for the Mets will just happen to be a time that I, you know, was sitting in the house watching a lot of baseball at night. And so I really get into the Mets.

I hated the Mets, but that was just baseball was on. Based on your hate watch. I was just that was what was on you'd switch between the Yankee game and the Met game growing up. That's just what you did as a kid. If you like baseballs and commercial over here. That's it right there. And if it were if one your team won the other team lost. Good day.
