New Podcast Posting: Branch Rickey’s Effort To Save Baseball from Itself
July 27, 2009 marks 50 years since the founding of the Continental Baseball League.
If that does not mean much, it’s not suprising. In fact, the Continental League never played a game.
But the story behind the rise and demise of the Continental League remains a fascinating one these many years later.
We speak with author Michael Shaprio about his book, “Bottom of the Ninth – Branch Rickey, Casey Stengel and the Daring Scheme to Save Baseball From Itself”. It is a strong historical record that resonates today. A big-time “what if” can not be ignored.
