Bob Beall is our guest this week.  Bob played in the Phillies, Braves and Pirates organizations during his career which lasted from 1970-1981.  Bob was drafted in the 28th round of the 1970 June Draft by the Philadelphia Philles out of Oregon State University.  Bob actually played some 3rd base as a left-handed fielder at Oregon State, which was very unusual.  He worked his way to the Major Leagues and had some significant playing time during the 1978 season with Atlanta.  Bob was a switch-hitting line drive hitter during his career and played mostly at 1st base.  We hope you enjoy this trip down memory lane to the 1970s Back When There Was Baseball.
