Back When There Was Baseball: Dave Dravecky

Our guest this week is remembered for his great comeback from cancer, then the ending of his career in Montreal.  But did you remember how effective he was as a left-handed pitcher in the 1980s?  Dave Dravecky joins us this week to talk about his playing days at Youngstown State University through his last MLB game with the San Francisco Giants.  He broke into the Majors with the San Diego Padres in 1982 and his career ended in 1989 with the Giants.  Dave had an ERA of 3.13 with a career record of 64-57.  These are outstanding stats and may have led him to Hall of Fame consideration had he been fortunate enough to play longer.  Join us as Dave recalls his career as we go Back When There Was Baseball into the 1980s.
