Listen "Episode 328 - His Grace, Duke Edwin Snider"
Episode Synopsis
Overshadowed by the greatness of Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle, the third of the holy trio of Golden Age, New York-based center fielders, Duke Snider, was a marvel in his own right. A five tool player whose short peak rivaled Willie's for the title of the best player in the National League and pushed the Dodgers to their first championship. But all good things come to an end and, 61 years ago this week, the Dodgers sold him to the Mets. Mike and Bill look back at the incredible career of the Duke of Flatbush and his indelible imprint on baseball history. Plus, happy birthday to Jeff Heath and Jack Stivetts! And farewell to John Oldham and Larry Demery
