Episode 351 - The Red Sox Peel Rice Off

from This Week In Baseball History · host Mike Bates and Bill Parker

When he was elected to the Hall of Fame, he was touted as the most feared hitter of his era. But by the time the Red Sox released him 35 years ago, Rice was looking old before his time, hobbled from various injuries and poor eyesight. On the anniversary of the end of his career, Mike and Bill look back at a controversial Hall of Fame choice to figure out what all the fuss was actually about. Plus, happy birthday to Mitch Williams and Roosevelt Harris! And farewell to Doug Bird, Harry Chappas, Minnie Mendoza and Ed Kranepool.
