This week, Shawn Anderson and Lou Olsen are joined by author Charles Leerhsen.
The author of Ty Cobb: A Terrible Beauty talks to the boys about the misconceptions surrounding baseball’s first Hall of Famer, why he thinks the world casts certain people as monsters, calls Cobb biographer Al Stump a “liar” and shares who he thinks is the greatest player he’s ever seen play.
