Episode Details

Kansas City Royals’ dynamic use of speed reshaped postseason strategy—Terrance Gore’s lightning-fast base running delivered pivotal moments but raises a haunting question: how many October heroes have we never seen? 

Sully celebrates Gore’s improbable career—three World Series rings, barely any at-bats, but an indelible postseason impact—while tracing baseball’s long history of unlikely champions, from Dave Roberts’ legendary steal for the Boston Red Sox to Francisco Cabrera’s season-saving hit for the Atlanta Braves. The show digs into baseball’s segregated past, exploring the stories of players denied their chance on the biggest stage. Can the next wave of postseason X-factors seize their moment, or will history repeat its silence? Don’t miss this thoughtful tribute to overlooked legends and the strategic art of speed in modern MLB.
