Let’s Go To The Ballpark

On July 1, 2006, Gary Matthews Jr. made one of the best catches in the history of baseball. Clinton Yates talks with him, and the man who hit the ball, Mike Lamb, about how that grab represented the work of two guys whose otherwise solid careers, are often defined by this one great play they shared. Also, we sit down with former big leaguer Xavier Scruggs, who played 8 years of professional baseball including a life-changing stint in Korea. He's now a broadcaster and DNI consultant for the St. Louis Cardinals. And, of course, Jeopardy! has heard it from the community. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
