This episode of Minor League Nerd Shorts looks at the history of the Myrtle Beach Hurricanes, who began in 1981 as the Florence Blue Jays. They were originally covered in our old Throwback Thursday Cap of the Day series. Those episodes were never uploaded as podcast versions, making this our fifth expanded and recut episode from that series.
