We go back in the time machine this week to the late-1960s through the mid-1970s with our guest Bobby Valentine.  You should recognize that name, but maybe as an MLB manager.  We focus on his playing career this week.  Bobby was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1968 as the 5th overall pick.  He was sent to rookie ball in Ogden, Utah along with teammates Bill Buckner, Tom Paciorek and Steve Garvey to name a few and Tommy Lasorda managed that team.  Bobby got to the Big Leagues quickly, but his career was marred by injuries.  He could play multiple positions, and before the injuries, he could run and hit well.  Bobby was destined to be an outstanding player, but as we often discuss on this podcast, he had to overcome numerous injuries.  Please look at the image below of an old knee brace.  This is a replica of the one Bobby wore during his career.  Join us as we go Back When There Was Baseball with Bobby Valentine.
