Show notes
To commemorate the annual return of baseball (Thursday was opening day), this week on Best of the Gist, we revisit a 20-year-old piece of NPR reporting in which Mike takes us to Yankee Stadium to learn the value the Crackerjack reference in the 1908 song "Take Me Out to the Ballgame." Could it be the greatest piece of product placement ever? And we replay Monday's Spiel about mistaking trend for truth.
Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
