This Week In Baseball History


Aug 2, 2024

Why is Mel Ott such an enigma? For all of his accomplishments, we really know very little about the stocky little right fielder who made hittiing at the Polo Grounds an art. So, on the 79th anniversary of his 500th homer, Mike and Bill go looking for the best hitter no one talks about today.

Plus, happy birthday to Freddie Fitzsimmons and Larry Doyle!

And farewell to Hank Foiles and John Upham.
