Yep, we're still in the 1940s, and this time there's an awful lot about Stan Musial, with side tracks into the 'lost homer', Nate Colbert, Alex Johnson, and more close batting races. NOTE- we are aware there are some volume issues. The cable on Indy's mike was cutting in and out, and we didn't disover it until it was too late to re-record and still get the episode out on time.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
