Episode 160 – Luke Appling Goes Yard For the Last Time (with Michael Clair)

Luke Appling was one of the best old players in baseball history. But nobody truly knew how good an old player could be until 38 years ago this week, when Appling hit his final home run, at the age of 75. Mike and Bill look at the career of the underrated all time great, and special guest Michael Clair (@michaelsclair) of MLB.com talks about the amazing home run he hit long after his last big league game. Plus happy birthday to Dave Henderson and Mike Witt!
