The HOVG Podcast: Al Oliver

This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen are joined by Al “Scoop” Oliver.

The should-be Hall of Famer talks to the boys about how he would’ve handled playing during the coronavirus pandemic and why being a “creature of habit” could’ve helped him out, playing for the history-making 1971 Pittsburgh Pirates and who his closest teammates were, the toughest pitchers he faced during his career and, of course, his new book.
