Ray Chapman was the toast of Cleveland, until 100 years ago this week, when his life was tragically cut short by a Carl Mays fastball that crushed in his skull. Mike and Bill go through the lives of the star-crossed pair who would become forever linked in the history of the game, and the ramifications of Chapman's death on his city, his team, his family, and his killer. Plus, happy birthday to Baby Doll Jacobson and Tiny Bonham.
