Show Summary:Host Bill Donohue begines the show by welcoming author Stephen W. Dittmore, who presents his latest work, Jim Gilliam: The Forgotten Dodger. This episode elucidates the life and accomplishments of Jim Gilliam, a pivotal yet underappreciated figure in Dodgers history, who played an integral role in seven World Series and earned four championship rings. Dittmore articulates the reasons behind Gilliam's obscurity in baseball history, despite his significant contributions and statistical prominence. Later, Bill talks with writer and historical consultant Marshall Garvey, who unveils insights from his book, Interstate '85: The Royals, The Cardinals, and the Show-Me World Series. Garvey's narrative weaves together the cultural and sporting tapestry of the 1985 World Series, capturing the essence of a momentous event that resonated far beyond the confines of the baseball field. Together, these discussions offer a profound exploration of baseball's rich history and its enduring impact on American culture.Show Details:The dialogue commences with the esteemed host, Bill Donohue, who warmly welcomes Stephen W. Dittmore, the author of the recently published tome, "Jim Gilliam: The Forgotten Dodger." This text seeks to illuminate the life and career of Jim Gilliam, a pivotal yet oft-overlooked figure in the annals of baseball history. Dittmore elucidates the reasons behind Gilliam's moniker as the 'Forgotten Dodger,' arguing that while he may not be a household name like others from the legendary Brooklyn Dodgers, his contributions to the team are significant. He played an instrumental role in seven World Series and secured four championship titles, yet paradoxically, he remains absent from the discussions surrounding Hall of Fame candidacy. Dittmore's compelling narrative delves into Gilliam's background, tracing his journey from the Negro Leagues to becoming the National League Rookie of the Year in 1953, and highlights his remarkable versatility as a player who excelled in multiple positions. The conversation underscores the need to revisit and reassess the legacies of such players, ensuring that their contributions are duly recognized and celebrated.Following the enlightening discussion with Dittmore, the focus transitions to another literary talent, Marshall Garvey. He introduces his work, "Interstate '85: The Royals, The Cardinals, and the Show-Me World Series," which captures the cultural and historical significance of the 1985 World Series. This narrative intricately weaves together the threads of sports and popular culture, reflecting on how the events of that year transcended mere baseball to encapsulate a unique historical moment. Garvey elaborates on the evocative imagery of Interstate 70, which serves as a metaphor for the journeys undertaken by the players and the intertwined fates of the Kansas City Royals and the St. Louis Cardinals. His book not only recounts the series itself but also delves into the aftermath and the enduring legacy it left on both franchises. The discussion highlights the importance of remembering these historical contexts, as they shape the identities of teams and their cities, making baseball a significant cultural touchstone beyond the game itself.Takeaways: Jim Gilliam, despite his significant contributions to the Dodgers, remains largely unrecognized in baseball history, receiving no Hall of Fame votes. The 1985 World Series, marked by the infamous missed call by umpire Don Denkinger,...

Marc and former State Senator John Lamping analyze recent Missouri legislation signed by Governor Kehoe, focusing on the economic and political impacts. They discuss the contentious stadium funding bill benefiting the Kansas City Chiefs and Royals, highlighting how the St. Louis Cardinals stand to gain hundreds of millions for stadium upgrades despite sitting out the negotiations. Lamping shares his candid view on the Chiefs and Royals potentially moving to Kansas and expresses indifference toward the Royals. They also cover Kehoe's surprising mix of consensus-driven politics—supporting both school choice and increased public school funding—and recent laws such as the K-12 cell phone ban and free in-state college tuition for first responders' kids. The conversation critiques government expansion masked as incentives, stresses the importance of property rights, and warns of looming fiscal constraints due to Medicaid funding changes.

Bo Jackson - On July 15, 1951, the New York Yankees demote struggling rookie Mickey Mantle to their Kansas City farm team in the American Association.

Incredibly, Gibson pitches to two more batters before leaving the game. Gibson was sidelined until Labor day. He would come back and would win 3 games in the World Series against the Red Sox.On July 15, 1973, Before 41,411 in Detroit, California Angels ace Nolan Ryan hurls his second no-hitter of the season in taming the Detroit Tigers, 6 - 0. Ryan fans 17 batters, the most ever in a 9-inning no-hitter, including eight straight, but only one over the last two innings. Nolan's arm stiffens while watching his team rally for five runs in the top of the 8th. With two outs in the 9th, Norm Cash, who had struck out his three other times at bat, comes to bat wielding a piano leg. Umpire Ron Luciano points out the illegality and Cash then pops out using a regulation bat. Ryan's eight strikeouts in a row ties the American League record he set last year. On July 15, 1990, Bo Jackson of the Kansas City Royals hits home runs in three consecutive at-bats before separating his shoulder trying to make a diving catch against Deion Sanders of the New York Yankees. Jackson's power surge helps the Royals to a 10-7 victory, but the two-sport star will miss the next six weeks.On July 15, 1994 - In the first inning at Comiskey Park, Chicago White Sox manager Gene Lamont accuses Cleveland Indians slugger Albert Belle of using a corked bat, and umpire Dave Phillips confiscates the bat and stores it in the umps' dressing room. In a Mission Impossible caper revealed in 1999, the Indians' Jason Grimsley crawls 100 feet along a ceiling, drops down into the dressing room, and exchanges Belle's bat for one of Paul Sorrento's. After the 3 - 2 Indians win, the switch is discovered to the consternation of the umps and the White Sox. The Indians subsequently turn over one of Belle's bats and Belle is given a 10-day suspension, later reduced to seven games.Historical Recap performed by:Robyn Newton from - Robyn SaysTrivia is provided by -Horseshide TriviaThis Day In Baseball is Sponsored by - www.vintagebaseballreflections.com - Join the membership today and listen to 50 years of baseball history told to you by the folks who were there!
