Another baseball season is underway so we dipped into the archive and
pulled out three gems from the ball diamonds. Paul Dickson has been a
frequent guest over the years and he has written widely about baseball.
Here are excerpts from a couple of his interviews. And George Vescey is
a legendary sportswriter who made his sole appearance on the show to
discuss his biography of the St.Louis Cardinal great Stan Musial.
Podcast includes:
- "Bill Veeck: Baseball's Greatest Maverick"by Paul Dickson (original recording made in 2012)
- "Stan Musial: An American Life" by George Vecsey (original recording made in 2011)
- "The Dickson Baseball Dictionary" by Paul Dickson (original recording made in 2011)
