This Week In Baseball History


Mar 20, 2019

The road to end the reserve clause was a long one that got a little easier 43 years ago this week, when the owners ended the lockout they'd imposed to protest the oncoming free agency. Marc Normandin (@Marc_Normandin) joins us to discuss the lockout, the contentious labor history between players and owners, and his latest article for Deadspin, "An MLB Strike Threat Might Be the Players' Only Leverage." Plus, happy birthday to Gavy Cravath and Dwayne Murphy.
