Episode 116 – Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker Are Joined

Ruth and Gehrig. Brett and White. Mays and McCovey. There have been so many great pairs of teammates in baseball history. But none of them played together as long or as often as Alan Trammell and Lou Whitaker, who began their HoF-worthy careers in the same game 42 years ago this week. Mike and Bill trace their excellent and often overlooked time together that propelled the Tigers back to prominence and lament Whitaker’s exclusion from Cooperstown. Plus, happy birthday to Mark Prior and Bernie Williams!
