November 06, 2023 Frank Howard
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.

It's with a heavy heart that I present my conversation with Brooks Robinson. When I heard of his passing, my mind went immediately to my very first baseball memory: the 1969 World Series and as a now bonafide 6 year old fan, I had a chance to start to appreciate great players.
The 1970 World Series...THE BROOKS ROBINSON WORLD SERIES...was an incredible jump off point for a lifelong love of The Game outside of my NY Bubble.

September 25, 2023 5: Pete Rose
"Pete Rose is...." Start with those 3 words and watch what happens. Everyone has an opinion - or 6 - about him. I wanted to be one of the few people who did the "Baseball Conversation" with Pete. Here it is...Joe DiMaggio...Hank..Willie...his All-Time Teammate team (just wait)...the games and at bats...
