Dock Ellis: High and Outside [from Very Special Episodes]

from The Untold History of Sports in America · host iHeartPodcasts

In June 1970, Dock Ellis of the Pittsburgh Pirates somehow tossed a no-hitter while tripping on acid. The LSD stunt made him a legend, but it overshadowed a much deeper story: a man who spent the second half of his life searching for redemption, purpose, and a way to help others escape the same darkness that once enveloped him.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
