On the new episode of the SI Vault Podcast, Ted Keith visits with Jon Wertheim to remember two stories given new relevance given recent events in the world of sports. First, Keith and Wertheim remember the recently-deceased Ozzie Silna, the onetime owner of the ABA's Spirits of St. Louis, who made what is widely considered to be the most savvy deal in the history of sports. Next, given Max Scherzer's recent 20-strikeout game for the Nationals, the pair reminisce about Kerry Wood's dominant performance for the Cubs in 1998, which Wertheim covered as one of his first stories for the magazine.

On the latest edition of The SI Vault podcast, we celebrate the legacy of Jackie Robinson with a reading of John Schulian's 2000 Sports Illustrated feature "Laughing on the Outside," the story of Josh Gibson.
