Today on The Three-Inning Save podcast, Eric Stephen and Jacob Burch look back at Al Downing, who won 20 games, made an All-Star team, and won Comeback Player of the Year with the Dodgers in 1971.

Downing also famously allowed Henry Aaron’s 715th home run, in 1974, but Downing had a distinguished career, pitching 17 seasons in the majors, including seven years with the Dodgers and nine years with the Yankees.
