Podcasts about california angels

The Ryan Express was rolling along in June of 1975 as Nolan Ryan had just thrown the 4th no-hitter of his career while pitching for the California Angels. The flame throwing righty was doing things nobody had ever seen before, and would continue to do until his bionic arm finally gave out while with the Rangers in 1993. 27 seasons, 5,714 strikeouts, and 7 no-hitters later, Ryan finally was put out to pasture where he continued to be a success in whatever he did… and people noticed. One such person was Leo Ullman who two years after Ryan threw the final pitch of his Hall-of-Fame career purchased 11 Nolan Ryan baseball cards at a $1 a piece… and so began the largest collection of Nolan Ryan memorabilia that has been assembled. Saddles, cleats, bats, balls, if it had Nolan Ryan's name attached to it, Ullman purchased it, eventually amassing close to 15,000 different items in a collection that now resides at Stockton University in New Jersey. Ullman wanted the entire collection to stay input, so instead of it going to the Hall of Fame where they might have picked over the items in the collection, he kept it intact at the campus in Galloway Township. A lawyer by trade, Ullman is also an author, having written a book about his collection titled, ‘Nolan Ryan, The Largest And Most Unique Collection Of All Things Nolan Ryan, The Greatest Power Pitcher Of All Time.” But that's not the only book Mr. Ullman wrote. ‘796 Days: Hiding as a child in occupied Amsterdam during WWII and then coming to America' is the story of Leo as a 3-year old when he was taken in by a couple and hidden in their attic for over 2 1/2 years during the Nazi occupation of Amsterdam. The Dutch resistance put his parents in a different house and it wasn't until the war was over that young Leo was reunited with his birthparents… who survived without knowing if their little Leo had as well. Leo comes on the Past Our Prime podcast and tells us the similarities between his life's story and that of Anne Frank's. He would later go on to become a Director and Chairman of the Anne Frank Center USA  and tells us that his war-parents brought him to stay with them knowing they could be executed if the Jewish boy was found for one reason… “It was the right thing to do.”  His parents would emigrate to the States and settle in Brooklyn and 8-year old Leo would fall in love with Jackie Robinson and the Dodgers. A few years later the team would break Leo's heart and leave for Los Angeles, but Leo's love for baseball never waned. At some point, his allegiance turned to the Mets and years later, when Mets owner Steve Cohen heard of Leo's story, he invited him to throw out the first pitch at a game…  Leo recalls how, much like a former Mets pitcher by the name of Nolan Ryan, he bounced the pitch in the dirt much to his chagrin. But he refused to let his time in that attic define him. Instead, he joyfully tells us how he spent time with the Mets in a fantasy camp years ago and still keeps in touch with his fellow Mets buddies… At age 86, Leo has gone from the nightmare of the Holocaust to a Mets Dream Week… and in between, put together the largest collection of Nolan Ryan collectibles of all-time. It's been quite the life for Leo and he tells us all about it on the Past Our Prime podcast… Give us a listen and drop us a review wherever you get your podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Randy Finally Clues In On The Potential Of AI This week Randy travels down to near Nawlins but takes a right before he gets there, which takes him through Baton Rouge and across the huge swampland of southern Louisiana to Lafayette to Lake Charles to Texas where he holes up near Dallas to watch his Angels get clobbered by the Rangers lol.   For some reason, Randy has picked this week to go into crisis mode as he FINALLY begins using ChatGPT in earnest on some of his photos and it slowly dawns on him that AI is kind of a big deal.  The fellas then have a lengthy discussion about AI and how and in what ways it's going to affect just about every corner of society.  Bubba throws in some more advanced info about what's coming next that is REALLY disruptive, such as Agentic AI agents.

The 1969 season is underway, and the Minnesota Twins' Rod Carew is already raking up the hits. After seven games, he's posting .388. That form will continue through the rest of the year, his eventual .322 winning him the AL Batting Trophy for the first of seven times—enough for the title to carry his name from 2016. If you want another 1969 stat, Carew steals home seven times (just one short of Ty Cobb's record of eight).Carew's career record notably contains 15 consecutive seasons batting over .300, starting in 1969; seven 5-hit games; and an overall .328, and elected to the Hall of Fame in 1991. As for legendary status, how about becoming only the 16th player in baseball history to reach 3000 hits?For today's game, we're early in the season, though, and the 6-6 California Angels are visiting the 7-4 Twins at Metropolitan Stadium. Monte Moore & Al Helfer take you through the game.You can find the boxscore here:https://www.baseball-reference.com/boxes/MIN/MIN196904210.shtml.This game was played on April 21, 1969.

Free agency doesn't seem that complicated, but 44 years ago this week, the Boston Red Sox made a colossal error, accidentally non-tendering two of their biggest stars, Fred Lynn and Carlton Fisk. Mike and Bill trace the careers of two of the 1970s and 1980s best players, find out what went so wrong at the end of 1980, and sort through the fallout of one of baseball's biggest blunders. Plus, happy birthday to Andy Van Slyke and Moose Skowron.

Passed Ball Show #734 (December 7, 2024) John lists off reasons history should not blame Donnie Moore for the California Angels losing the 1986 American League Championship Series to the Boston Red Sox.

Here is the conclusion of my conversation with L.A.-based PR executive Danny Deraney. We spend the first few minutes talking about the current World Series matchup — as well as Danny's memories of games at Dodger Stadium and also the magical '86 postseason involving the then-California Angels.Danny shares his thoughts on social media and how it can be used in a positive way. He has a perspective on being a good person and enjoying life that will make an impact on you. We talk a little bit about old television and the SNL "powerhouse season" from the mid-'80s (feat. Billy Crystal, Martin Short, Chris Guest, etc).Finally, Danny reveals his favorite Buffett song, the KISS connection, working with Ozzy & an exclusive Dan Time "name origin" story!Follow him on these platforms:@DannyDeraney - X@dannyderaney - Instagram@DeraneyPR - Instagramhttps://deraneypr.comThanks for subscribing to Dan Time - available on all podcast platforms & YouTubedantimepod@gmail.com

pWotD Episode 2731: Fernando Valenzuela Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 412,854 views on Wednesday, 23 October 2024 our article of the day is Fernando Valenzuela.Fernando Valenzuela Anguamea (Latin American Spanish pronunciation: [feɾˈnando βalenˈswela]; November 1, 1960 – October 22, 2024) was a Mexican-American professional baseball pitcher. Valenzuela played 17 Major League Baseball (MLB) seasons, from 1980 to 1997 (except for a one-year sabbatical in Mexico in 1992). While he played for six MLB teams, his longest tenure — and most significant achievements — were with the Los Angeles Dodgers, which signed him in 1979 and gave him his MLB debut in 1980. Valenzuela batted and threw left-handed, with an unorthodox windup. He was one of a small number of pitchers who regularly threw a screwball in the modern era.Valenzuela enjoyed his breakout year in 1981, when "Fernandomania" rapidly catapulted him from relative obscurity to stardom. He won his first eight starts, five of them shutouts, and dazzled not just the Dodgers and their fans, but all of Major League Baseball. He finished with a record of 13–7 and had a 2.48 ERA in a season that was shortened by a player's strike. He became the first, and as of 2024, only player to win both the Cy Young and Rookie of the Year awards in the same season. The Dodgers won the World Series that year.Valenzuela peaked from 1981 to 1986, when he was named a National League (NL) All-Star in each season. He won an NL-leading 21 games in 1986, although Mike Scott of the Houston Astros narrowly beat him out in the Cy Young Award voting. Valenzuela was also one of the better hitting pitchers of his era. He had ten career home runs and was occasionally used by Los Angeles Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda as a pinch-hitter. In 1986, he signed the largest contract for a pitcher in baseball history ($5.5 million/3 years). However, nagging shoulder problems diminished the remainder of his Dodgers career. He was on the Dodgers' 1988 World Series championship team, but sat out the postseason with a shoulder injury. On June 29, 1990, Valenzuela threw his only MLB no-hitter against the St. Louis Cardinals, leading Los Angeles to a 6–0 home victory in his final season as a Dodger. Despite this renewed flash of greatness, the Dodgers unceremoniously released Valenzuela prior to the 1991 season. He spent the rest of his major league career with the California Angels, Baltimore Orioles, Philadelphia Phillies, San Diego Padres, and St. Louis Cardinals, before pitching a couple of seasons in Mexico in his 40s.Valenzuela returned to the Dodgers organization after retiring, serving as a broadcaster from 2003 to 2024, the year of his death. The Dodgers retired his No. 34 in 2023. His career highlights include a win-loss record of 173–153, with an earned run average (ERA) of 3.54. His 41.5 career wins above replacement (according to Baseball-Reference) is the highest of any Mexican-born MLB player.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:19 UTC on Thursday, 24 October 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Fernando Valenzuela on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Niamh.

Baseball runs deep in Brad Lachemann's family. Brad's father was a Major League pitcher and managed the California Angels. His Uncle Rene Lachemann managed nearly 1,000 MLB games, and his Uncle Bill has coached in the Angels' organization for decades. Coach Lachemann led the Arroyo Grande High School baseball program for 20 years, ending his tenure in 2020. His dedication to baseball extends beyond high school as he served as a coach for USA Baseball's 12u Open in 2019 and, most recently, he contributed his expertise to the USA Baseball Task Force for the 11u NTIS in 2023.

Rodney Cline Carew was born on a train in Gatun, Panama on October 1, 1945. He moved with his family to New York when he was fourteen years old, and signed with the Minnesota Twins on the day he graduated from high school.Rod Carew is one of the most talented players to ever don a major league uniform. During his illustrious nineteen-year career he was selected to eighteen All-Star teams. He is the all-time All-Star vote leader with thirty-three million votes – six million more than the runner-up. His career statistics explain why on January 8, 1991, he became only the 22nd player in history to be voted into Baseball's Hall of Fame on the first ballot.Rod had a lifetime batting average of .328 and averaged better than .300 for 15 consecutive seasons. He averaged .344 for the decade of the seventies.In his twelve seasons with the Minnesota Twins, and seven with the California Angels, Rod amassed 3,053 career hits, twelfth on the all-time list at the time of his retirement. He won seven batting titles, a figure surpassed only by Ty Cobb, Tony Gwynn and Honus Wagner.Rod and Willie Mays are the only players in baseball history to be Rookie of the Year (1967), Most Valuable Player (1977), have 3,000 hits and be voted into the Hall of Fame (1991).Rod was also named the Roberto Clemente Award winner (1977) by Major League Baseball as the player who best exemplifies the game of baseball, sportsmanship and community involvement. He was only the third person to have his uniform (#29) retired by two teams.

Welcome to this edition of Meaningful Monday with Lee Brower, a widely known sports enthusiast who celebrates the inspiring story of Jim Abbott. Jim Abbott, a major league baseball player for the California Angels, has never let his one-armed condition deter him from achieving his dreams. Constantly challenged by his disability, Jim faced difficulty in even tying his shoelaces. It was at this juncture that his third-grade teacher, Mr. Clarkson, stepped in. Mr. Clarkson showed him not sympathy but a solution, teaching him how to tie his shoelaces with one hand. This single act of kindness and thoughtfulness brought about a significant change in Jim's life, leading him to break barriers, achieve the deemed impossible, and make it to play in the esteemed Yankee Stadium while demonstrating an unyielding spirit of determination. What's heartening is that Jim treasures not his staggering accomplishments but the memory of Mr. Clarkson - the teacher who cared enough to make a difference. Today, Jim passes on this kindness by teaching kids that every challenge can indeed be met with a solution. The crux of the story emphasizes the need for more acts of kindness, no matter how small they may seem. These are the arrows we put out into the world, without even knowing where they might land or how many lives they might touch and transform along the way. So, let's make a difference today, just like Mr. Clarkson did, and let's inspire someone to overcome their challenges and hit their own no-hitter in life. Go out there and keep those kindness ripples moving! Stay tuned for the next episode of Meaningful Monday. Thank you for joining us!

Season 3 Part 12 of the Travels With Randy podcast is here! Seriously What Do Key Deer Look Like? Another week - another weekly adventure for Randy.  This week it's time for some sunglasses and Hawaiian shirts because Randy is hitting every beach in Florida and then heading to Bubba's Mecca, Key West. We last left Randy as he was hugging the Gulf and driving east through towns like Gulfport and Biloxi and Pascagoula.  This week, he continues his journey east and into the Sunshine State of Florida.  He crosses Florida to the east coast at Jacksonville, and then bravely drives ALL the way down A1A to Miami.   He drives on the beach at Daytona, almost drinks from the Fountain of Youth at St Augustine, and gets all excited to see a nude beach until he sees who is on it.  Cape Canaveral is next, followed by Miami and a baseball game between the Marlins and his beloved Angels.  He ends the week driving Snuffy through the Florida Keys, where he will hang out for several days before heading slowly back north to the Everglades.    Come join the conversation on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/travelswithrandypodcast Have a great idea for the guys?  Want to sponsor us?  Want to be a guest?  Email bubba@travelswithrandypodcast.com

Season 3 Part 8 of the Travels With Randy Podcast is here! Head East Old Man! Listen - a man who wants to circle the entire country can't stay in one place forever, right? So it's been a fun 10 days or so of home-basing in Quartzsite, AZ during the week and then heading on over to Phoenix for some baseball on the weekends for Randy.  He watched several more Angel games and managed to get out and about, visiting some of the fascinating old mining towns-turned-t-shirt-souvenir-shop towns.   This round he focused on the old mining town of Globe, AZ and its' sister city Paris, AZ.  No gold was found, however. Now, it's time to pack up and wave goodbye to Quartzsite for the 'season' - Randy is headed east.  He'll be spending some time in New Mexico finishing up his original goal all those podcasts ago of visiting every US National Park - the Big 63.   He'll knock three of the four remaining ones off his list - White Sands, NM, Big Bend, TX, and Carlsbad Caverns, NM.   He'll then drive down to the Texas border and basically follow it all the way across Texas and hit Louisiana as he heads towards New Orleans.

Season 3 Part 8 of the Travels With Randy Podcast is here! Spring Training Is Upon Us Baseball.  Spring training.  California Angels Spring Training in Phoenix.  Randy is in Heaven. That's right gang - spring training is finally here.  As you know, Randy has several goals for this year of travelling:   see National Parks, see his Angels play in as many different stadiums as he can, and visit every corner of the USA in Snuffy.   To say Randy is excited about spring training is a bit of an understatement. He did manage to visit Oatman, AZ earlier this week.  Oatman is one of the many old towns littered across Route 66 that used to be a gold mining town but now sells mostly t-shirts.  He put tons of pics of it up on our Facebook page. Mostly, though, the week was filled with baseball.  Randy drove over from his home base of Quartzsite, AZ to Phoenix for several days to watch his Angels play some spring ball.  Once again, he took tons of pics - of actual humans this time - that he has uploaded to Facebook.  You can just hear the excitement and joy in his voice as he describes the games. The fellas also talk about several random topics like the border, credit cards and their insane rates, hotel points programs, and even a common scam to avoid.  Randy then lays out th eplan for the next few weeks of travel.  Come join the conversation on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/travelswithrandypodcast Have a great idea for the guys?  Want to sponsor us?  Want to be a guest?  Email bubba@travelswithrandypodcast.com

Two Weeks Until 365 Days On The Road It's getting close!  On Dec 26th Randy hops in his van and will spend a year on the road visiting literally every corner of the United States! Bubba has had a very eventful few weeks in his e-commerce business, and not the good kind.  He spends a few minutes explaining the latest wackadoo event that has thrown his business off course during the most critical time of the year. After that, the fellas talk travel!   Randy has decided to alter his plans slightly and will now drive completely around the perimeter of the US - over 10,000 miles - to see the "corners" of our great country.  Don't worry - he'll still be visiting a ton of National Parks AND Angels baseball games in various stadiums across the fruited plain.   He has posted a detailed map of his upcoming trip on our Facebook page, and that post has gone viral.  Looks like a LOT of folks want to travel along with him.

Season 2 Ep 8 of the Travels With Randy Podcast is here! Preparing For A Year On The Road The fellas are still stuffed after Thanksgiving and Bubba is still crushed with online orders from his business, but Randy is deep in thought and action about what the next year has in store for him. That's right - in 3 weeks Randy is hitting the road with his new souped-up van Snuffy and will spend a YEAR traveling around the United States. The boys talk about what it's like to prepare for such a journey.  What do you pack?  What do you need to buy? What if you forget something important?  On and on. Randy is leaving the nest in Washington and driving down the coast to Southern Cali, then headed across the southern United States, then up the east coast, then finally home a year from now.  He has 4 main goals in mind as he's planning where he will be visiting: There are only 5 National Parks left to see now in the lower 48, and Randy will hit all of them.   After that, the only ones left are in Alaska and he will visit those probably next year. He wants to see his beloved California Angels play in every ball park.  He's been in 15 of them and has 15 to go. He wants to complete a few missing links in his extensive genealogy family tree/history. He has traced his ancestors back to the 1600's (!) and just has a few missing pieces left to go. It's time to get some weight off before he turns 65 next year.  Hiking and walking everywhere should take care of it! They end the pod with a long talk about what romance is when you've been married 25+ years and Bubba compliments his youngest son for planning a surprise fondue meal for his girlfriend and also explains how cool it is that Mrs. Bubba's nephew earned the rank of Eagle Scout which they attended in Greenville, SC.

Lyman Bostock had it all. He had the genetic lineage, as his father was a star outfielder for the Birmingham Black Barons in the Negro Leaguess during the 1940's. He had a sweet left-handed stroke, that seemingly launched gap-seeking linedrives at will. He had blazing speed, great baseball instincts, and played Gold Glove caliber defense in Center Field. In his first two full seasons while playing for the Minnesota Twins, Bostock is in contention with his future Hall Of Fame teammate Rod Carew, for batting titles in both years. He is then signed by the California Angels, before the 1978 campaign, for the largest contract in American team sports at the time. His star is blinding, as many of his peers and opponents, consider him a superstar in wait. While standing on the precipes of greatness, all of that comes to an end, in the blink of an eye. The 27 year old phenom, becomes the first and only major leaguer to be murdered during the season, when he is violently gunned down in the streets of Gary, Indiana over a women, whom he literally knew for only 30 minutes of his life. One of the most tragic baseball stories, that has largely been forgotten, as time melts away. #LymanBostock #LymonBostockSr #AnniePearl #ManualArtsHighSchool #SanFernandoValleyUniversity #EarlWeaver#GeneMauch #RodCarew #MinnesotaTwins #CaliforniaAngels #DonBaylor #BobbyGrich #CarneyLandsford #YouveneBrooks #KennyLandreaux #EdTurner #FergusonJenkins #RayKroc #BuzzBavasi #GeneAutry #JoanHawkins #BarbaraSmith #LeonardSmith

Hour 2: Michael Jackson's “Don't Stop ‘Til You Get Enough” will always be special to Gio because it was the song when he was a contestant in Pittsburgh's version of Dancing with the Stars. The woman who trained him left her husband for her priest. That reminds us of Father Phil and Carmela from The Sopranos. The Yankees had another bad loss last night in LA. The pitch clock is helping but baseball still isn't like it used to be. Why was Anthony Volpe swinging for a HR when he needed a single? Jerry says Griffin Canning of the Angels had a very slow delivery. Giancarlo Stanton for Max Scherzer: who says no? Gio would love to have time to rewatch The Sopranos. Thursday Night Football hasn't caught on and is a problem. Do we even need Sunday Night Football? CLo returns for an update but first Gio asks Fliegs a Taylor Swift question, Diet Coke is considered dangerous by some and Russell Okung lost a lot of weight. Gio looks back at some of his diets. Men in the Hamptons are demanding penis injections. Gio would do it if he was a single man. Looking into penis enlargement methods online. We get to hear Wayne Randazzo again with the Yankees in Anaheim. Chris McMonigle fell into an old-timey voice. Is there such a thing as a penis that's too big? John Sterling got mad at the Angels PA announcer. Running backs across the NFL are not happy. In the final segment of the hour, Gio needs to give a gift to his neighbor that helped him fix the A/C last night. Eddie has the answer.

Hour 3: We are getting ready for CBS Sports Network to join us after the soccer friendly they were airing wraps up. How can the Angels let Shohei Ohtani walk away as a free agent? Jerry says the Mets best hope of landing Ohtani long term is to trade for him and sell him on New York while he is here. Gio says the Dodgers can just sit back, wait and land Ohtani in free agency. If a team trades for Ohtani and loses him in free agency it would be one of the biggest trade busts ever. Will the Mets pursue Ohtani at some point? Is there a case for the Mets mostly running it back next year? CLo returns with an Ohtani highlight to beat the Yankees and Jerry notices his hair is getting grayer. Running backs have been devalued. Are wide receivers next? Gio says no way. Greg Olsen says there's a lot in the game of football that looks or sounds like penises. Is Joel Embiid just trolling everyone? A man on TikTok was not happy when his wife told him she is pregnant with their 4th child. Failed vasectomy stories. In the final segment of the hour, Bebe Rexha shared a text from her boyfriend on Instagram. He texted her that she gained weight after telling her the same in person. Jeff Passan broke his back.

Hour 4: Rookies for some teams, including the Giants, are reporting to camp today. Everyone for the Jets reports tomorrow. We need football with these baseball teams. Gio got help with his slip yesterday. The marina owners who don't follow sports or know about Gio and WFAN helped out after someone played them the clip of Gio saying they don't know who he is on yesterday's show. They loved it and were happy to help. Gio has to give more “man baskets” now. One of them will get the vag-ankle. We can make better “man baskets” or “man crates” than the ones that are available online. CLo returns for his final update of the day. John Calipari has Kentucky practicing at Drake's house. Ohtani and the Angels beat the Yankees in the series opener last night. The Mets are back in action tonight. Joe B talked about golfing with Robert Saleh filling in with Evan yesterday. How long did it take for Saleh to regret golfing with Joe? Dog is returning to Bar A for the first time since he left WFAN. He faxed in his WFAN resignation from Bar A. In Moment of the Day, penis enlargement is “exploding” in the Hamptons. In the final segment of the day, Gio reads an interview with Evan Fournier in which he references Dragon Ball Z (thanks Anthony Gallo for explaining what he meant) and trashes Tom Thibodeau.

Hour 1: We had another frustrating Yankees loss, there's a frustrated Giants running back and Gio is shaking off a rough night on the golf course. He lost and the A/C was not working at home. Like Saquon tweeted, “it is what it is”. Gio thinks Saquon should have taken the Giants offer. Jerry believes there's only one way the valuation of running backs will ever change. CLo is in for Jerry and begins with the Yankees blowing another late lead, this time to Shohei Ohtani and the Angels. Jerry joked that Griffin Canning could throw a no-hitter against the Yankees. He didn't, but he did strike out 12 batters. Gio and Jerry have no problem with the Yankees not walking Ohtani before his game-tying HR. We may have seen the last of Josh Donaldson. Jerry wonders if some under-performing players should kick back some money to the owners paying them. Le'Veon Bell considers himself a prophet. The Jets don't want Hard Knocks to air when players get cut at the end of camp. Gio and Jerry say that's fine, we've seen that same scene a million times. Joel Embiid might want out of Philly. James Harden is a piece of work. In the final segment of the hour, we discuss the songs we can play as rejoins in the two hours we are off TV after Eddie chose a deep-cut from The Beatles. What songs did The Beatles play when they first played at Shea in the 60s? Gio gained some respect for Kirk Cousins watching him in “Quarterback”.
