This Week In Baseball History


Sep 27, 2024

Despite his career ending in ignomy 104 years ago this week, Joe Jackson remains a larger than life figure iin baseball and in American culture. But so much of how we picture Jackson is wrong, says former executive director of the Shoeless Joe Museum Dan Wallach (@shoelesspodcast). We talk with Dan about the man behind the myth and why it persists.

Plus, happy birthday to Bernard Gilkey and Urban Shocker!

And farewell to Jim Umbarger and Doug Creek.
