The Rock is back for another great conversation. From the roar of the crowd at Three Rivers Stadium to the echoing crack of the bat, the memories still linger like the scent of fresh ballpark peanuts.
Imagine stepping into the box to face down Major League pitching, or rounding the bases to the cheers of thousands after a clutch home run. We capture these electrifying moments in John's career, discussing the psychological maze athletes navigate and the bittersweet symphony of a player's final game. Wehner's transition into a broadcasting role and his 35-year bond with the team color our conversation, as he shares insights on the transformation from playing to analyzing the game he loves.
There's a lighter side to the dugout life that we dive into as well. Laughter echoes as we recount the strategic chess game of baseball and the inside jokes that players share. From Jim Leyland's influence to the quirky bets that somehow predict the outcome of a game, we reveal the camaraderie that stitches a team together. Whether you're a die-hard baseball aficionado or someone who just loves a good story, this chat isn't one to miss.
