Listen "Back When There Was Baseball: Tom Carroll"
Episode Synopsis
Our guest this week is Tom Carroll, who played most of his career in the Cincinnati Reds system. Tom was a 6th-round draft choice in 1970 out of North Allegheny High School in Wexford, PA. He worked his way up the ladder as a pitcher and finally got his call up to the majors in 1974 at the age of 21. When Don Gullett fractured his thumb in 1975, Tom was called up and was a major part of the Reds' 1975 World Series-winning team. Unfortunately for Tom, injuries curtailed his career. Join us Back When There Was Baseball as Tom talks about those great years playing for the Reds.
