We discuss Tommy's tenure as the hitting coach at Triple-A Omaha, where we worked together from 2011-15, his hitting & teaching philosophy, his career in the big leagues with the Pirates and Braves, including the 1991 World Series team, as well as his stellar football career at Wake Forest. 

A fellow suburban Philadelphian who perservered and persisted to live out his dream by pitching in the big leagues. He was on his way back from injury and independent ball in 2007 when we worked together with the Huntsville Stars, Milwaukee's AA affiliate at the time, a year before he finally made it to The Show. We'll go on his 10 year journey to get there, what it was like when he finally made it and how he also pitched in the World Baseball Classic for Italy. 

A conversation with my former broadcast partner with the El Paso Diablos in which we discuss his nearly 24 years in the minor leagues before getting his shot in the big leagues, his favorite cities to dine and a few funny recollections from our time together in the booth.
