Little did we expect the extent of the Tartan Army takeover of Fenway Park during the FIFA World Cup. Bagpipes, a march, thousands of fans, songs, joy, beers. What was it like to be there?

Only way to find out was to get Tartan Army foot soldier Steven onto our podcast and talk us through it all. You can feel the fun of the evening through his words and enthusiasm.

Even better he is an NFL fan so we are working on his conversion! The Red Sox might have lost the game but I think they won many fans and enhanced theor reputation through their engagement with the Scotland fans. A heartfelt thank you to them.

The "Soccer" World Cup is upon us and the Bullpen Bros, full of excitement for Scotland's return to the tournament after a 28 year absence, have an irreverent chat looking at Scotland's opponents, MLB teams/cities whose early settlers hailed from competing European countries, countries playing and heavily represented in the MLB.

Just the sort of stuff that no one else will have covered but gives you a half hour of trivia and facts that might just crop in the pub quiz one day, you can thank us all later.

The World Cup preview for anyone looking to consume every conceivable piece of random facts.
