Episode 145 - Horrible Bosses (Winfield/Steinbrenner)

Everybody’s had a horrible boss before, but George Steinbrenner was the king. Despite paying Dave Winfield a record contract, he hated the man! He had him benched, refused to pay his charity the money he owed them & even payed a known mob associate $40k for dirt on him. Winfield got the last laugh though, he made the Hall of Fame while George was (temporarily) banned for life. Hear all about the toxic workplace Winfield had to deal with. Plus we remember the Dave Winfield-Nolan Ryan brawl, revile in a song about Tom Henke & talk a little Back to the Future via the MiLB Rule 5 draft. And as always, Wax Pack Heroes where we tackle a couple of packs from 1991.
