MLW Wiffle Ball

During the 2021 MLB Postseason, Kyle Schultz and Jimmy Knorp got the chance to represent MLW Wiffle Ball in some pick up wiffs with the MLB on TBS crew made up of legends Ernie Johnson, Pedro Martinez, Curtis Granderson, and Jimmy Rollins. After discussing the origins of MLW and giving a brief wiffle ball tutorial, Kyle Schultz found himself pitching against Granderson, his childhood idol, and Jimmy stepped into the batter's box against Pedro Martinez, the MLB Hall of Famer. The entire 11 minute segment was aired postgame of the NLDS on October 11th, and can be seen here. 

In the 10th year of league play (2018), MLW finally received some national recognition. Rookie Zac Peurach made an unbelievable catch to take a homer away from Noah Daberko, landing him the #9 spot on the SportsCenter's Top 10 Plays. The catch was made in a tie ball game in the World Series, making it arguably the greatest play in the history of MLW.

In 2020, Drew Davis also earned himself an #SCTop10 at #10, making him and Zac the only two players to achieve this feat.
