Listen "Back When There Was Baseball: Ted Power"
Episode Synopsis
The time machine travels back to the 1980s to take a look at our guest this week, Ted Power. Ted had an interesting path to the Major Leagues, through amateur baseball and Kansas State University. Ted ended up stuck in the mix with a lot of great young pitchers in the Los Angeles Dodgers organization, but on October 15, 1982 he got his break, being traded to the Cincinnati Reds. His best years were with Cincinnati in 1984 (11 saves) and 1985 (27 saves). He is one of the few pitchers who was able to start out his career as a relief pitcher, then convert to a starter, then back to a relief pitcher and he was successful at each position. We hope you enjoy this conversation with one of the best pitchers in the 1980s.
