This week, we have the distinct honor to welcome 2000 Baseball Hall of Famer Tony Pérez who joins us for an up-close look at his extraordinary 23-year career.
This Cuban native not only was a two-time World Series Champion, a seven-time All-Star but also shared with our listeners his upbringing in Cuba, his baseball idols Martín Dihigo/Minnie Miñoso and those dramatic homers in the 1967 All-Star Game (an interesting tidbit he actually shared for the FIRST time ever) and the 1975 World Series. But for this important member of the “Big Red Machine,” it’s always been about family (specifically his beloved parents, wife and children) but also how Roberto Clemente impacted not only his life but his fellow Latino ballplayers throughout the league. Plus his personal thoughts on baseball analytics and the “Retire 21” movement. Finally upon hearing the sad news on the recent deaths of long-time members in the National Baseball Hall of Fame fraternity, Tony shared his own reflections about these phenomenal men who played the game of baseball.
