Back When There Was Baseball: Jim Price

Jim Price passed away on August 7, 2023.  I conducted this interview with Jim in April of 2021.  We are re-airing this as a tribute to his life and career.

 

Jim Price is our guest this week. He is currently the color analyst for Detroit Tigers radio broadcasts and has been announcing for almost 30 years. Jim was a member of the 1968 World Series Champion Detroit Tigers. He came out of Hershey (PA) High School to play in the Pittsburgh Pirates minor league system. Jim was acquired by the Tigers in April of 1967 and made his MLB debut that year. He also was instrumental in the founding of the charity Jack's Place for Autism. Listen in as Jim discusses his baseball career as a player and also as an announcer.
