Episode 359 -- Derrike Cope on How a Random Interview Changed the Course of His Career

This week in the first of what will be three installments with Derrike Cope, he talks about his baseball career, the injury that ended that dream … but began another … and how THAT journey was given a huge boost by a good first impression. We then take a look inside the May 1, 1986 issue of Grand National Scene, which carries coverage of Ricky Rudd outlasting Dale Earnhardt, Geoff Bodine, Joe Ruttman and BUDDY ARRINGTON to win at Martinsville.
