Episode 131 - Padres & Giants Pitcher Dave Dravecky Some players have stories that are so compelling & great you remember them off the field more than on. Dave Dravecky had a great career on the mound, but what happened to him after a cancer diagnosis and gruesome injury during his comeback are even a better story. In part one of our time with Dave, we talk about playing baseball in Hawaii, his lone career home run, the guys who hit him well, being an All-Star and alot more. Plus, Lars Nootbaar is heating it up in St. Louis, we remember Kent Hrbek’s major league debut and THAT play at first with Ron Gant and finally, another round of Wax Pack Heroes with some custom packs sent in by a listener.
