This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen are joined by Brian Cronin.
The creative mind behind Sports Urban Legends Revealed talks to the boys about the fact and fiction behind some of baseball’s greatest urban legends including Rickey Henderson’s million dollar check, Lou Whitaker’s missing jersey, Wade Boggs’ drinking habits, that time someone tried to maim Wally Joyner and more.
And as a bonus…lots of comic book talk!
