Steve Grilli joins us this week. Steve came out of Gannon University and was signed as a free agent by the Detroit Tigers in 1970. He worked his way through the Minors and made his Major League debut in 1975. Steve stayed up with the Tigers through the 1977 season and was part of that magical season of 1976 where he was part of the pitching staff that included Mark "The Bird" Fidrych. He is the father of Jason Grilli who also pitched in the Majors for 18 seasons. We hope you enjoy this trip into the mid-1970s Back When There Was Baseball.
