Hardball: MLB History In First Person

The story of the 1969 Mets can not be told without going back to the beginning. The 120 loss record breaking inaugural season of 1962.

We will do that and so much more with our TWO guests this week. Ed Kranepool & Ron Swoboda. 50+ years later..this team resonates as much an ANY in the history of The Game.

It's with a heavy heart that baseball fans have lost another legend. Frank Howard was different. His career was fascinating. And his post baseball career more so. 19 years coaching..he loved the game..and maybe more so..loved it's players. It was never Me or I..he spread the word of others. I hope you enjoy this look back to the last sit down that Frank Howard did..,2 yrs ago and as sharp as it gets.

Enjoy.

If you asked...players...managers...announcers and fans...ones that had watched enough baseball over a long enough period of time...

If that time included the heyday of Willie Mays...take a seat and be enthralled of the stories of the most talented player they had ever seen.  

Winner of everything you can win in The Game...The Honor of having The World Series MVP Trophy named after him...Roberto Clemente Award Winner...and the very proud recipient of The Presidential Medal of Freedom

Here is my conversation with Willie...2001...on the 50th Anniversary of his debut in the Major Leagues.
