Welcome to GenX Classic Sports, the podcast where we revisit the unforgettable athletes, teams, and moments that shaped our sports memories growing up.
Baseball fans remember the steroid era. They remember the home run chase. But do you remember 1987? ⚾💥 One strange, unforgettable season when baseballs flew out of parks like never before — before the headlines, before the controversies.
From George Bell’s MVP power surge to Mark McGwire and Andre Dawson flirting with 50, the 1987 home run explosion shocked fans and rewrote expectations — then vanished just as fast. On GenX Classic Sports, we revisit the forgotten power surge that didn’t belong… and still doesn’t make sense. 🎙️🔥
