Episode Synopsis

This Winter, the Golden Days Era Committee will meet to vote on ten candidates for the Baseball Hall of Fame. This committee covers baseball from 1950 to 1969. Over the last three episodes, we covered a lot of candidates, but there were a few that I felt we didn’t explore enough. In this episode, we dig into those candidates.

First, Mark Armour tells us about the career of Felipe Alou. Mark is the president of the SABR board, founder of the SABR Bio Project, and an author.
