The HOVG Podcast: Rob Deer

podcast-rob-deer

This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen are joined by the man they call “Rooster”…Rob Deer.

Rob tells the boys about his friendship with Robin Yount, his love for Milwaukee (and why he believes he was allowed to leave the Brewers via free agency), playing in Japan and that one special night he caught the eye of The Material Girl.
