Spoiler alert, everyone is going to be disappointed by the result.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Third Base: Fun Stories, Tom Eshelman Edition<\/h3>\n<p>Jake recounts his emotional roller coaster, watching Tom Eshelman pitching, including the shame of being dunked on by Jim Palmer on Twitter.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Home Plate: Mea Culpa<\/h3>\n<p>Scott gets emotional, Jake fails to get analytical.
