Podcast appearances and mentions of Mike Hargrove

Bloomdaddy is broadcasting live from Rocket Mortgage Field House for the Greater Cleveland Sports Awards. Guests include David Gilbert, Fred Greetham, Mike Hargrove, Brad Sellers, and Terry Pluto talking about the trade the Cavaliers made at the deadline.

It's a fun Friday and Pat Butler, Mov, and Dennis Manoloff are in joining Bloomdaddy talking about favorite Super Bowl Commercials of all time? Takes calls on that, PLUS latest edition of the Ex-Files, Mike Hargrove joined Bloomdaddy at the Greater Cleveland Sports awards and he plays that. Scott Davidson also joins in giving the latest prop bets for the big game on Sunday between the Eagles and Chiefs.

It is arguably one of the darkest days in Cleveland baseball history. On June 4, 1974, the Indians held a "Ten Cent Beer Night" promotion to help boost fan attendance as the team struggled to fill seats. Their ploy worked, and over 25,000 fans descended upon Municipal Stadium to watch the Indians take on the Texas Rangers. But the cheap beer stunt also led to something never seen before, or ever again, on a Major League field - a violent, drunken riot. In this episode, 19 News investigators Brian Duffy and Jen Picciano revisit the chaotic game with a group of guests, including former Indians manager and first baseman Mike Hargrove, who was a rookie with the Rangers that night.

Mike Hargrove, former MLB manager who led the Cleveland Indians to two World Series appearances, shares his thoughts about a variety of topics, including the electric atmosphere at Jacobs Field in the mid-to-late 90s, the confidence and swagger of those powerhouse Indians teams, the heartache of an extra-innings loss to the Florida Marlins in Game 7 of the '97 World Series and his experiences in the hours immediately after that game, his approach to managing (including the fine line between becoming friendly with players and maintaining necessary distance), what he learned about managing from Billy Martin, the team's name change from Indians to Guardians in '22, the most talented player he ever managed, the current state of Major League Baseball (including analytics and rules changes) and much more.

On this latest episode of "Sabol Brothers on the Baseline" podcast,  John and Scott reflect on the 50-Year Anniversary of 10 Cent Beer Night at Cleveland Municipal Stadium with the help from former Indians manager Mike Hargrove and long-time Cleveland sports reporter and author Dan Coughlin.Former Cleveland Indians manager Mike Hargrove was on the field during the drunken fan riots as a member of the Texas Rangers on that infamous day on June 4, 1974. Dan Coughlin, a long-time Sports Reporter at WJW Fox 8 News, was an Indians beat writer at the time of 10 Cent Beer Night. Both men go down memory lane on what they remember on that night filled with dozens of punches thrown, hundreds of consumed kegs of beer and bad decisions..Homage Apparel:http://homage.sjv.io/sabolbrothers Follow us on X:Podcast: @SabolBrothersJohn: @John_SabolScott: @ScottSabolFox8The Press Play Podcast NetworkFollow us on X: @PressPlayPodsFor sponsorship plans and more information, please email admin@pressplaypodcasts.comFollow us on X:Podcast: @SabolBrothersJohn: @John_SabolScott: @ScottSabolFox8The Press Play Podcast NetworkFollow us on X: @PressPlayPodsFor sponsorship plans and more information, please email admin@pressplaypodcasts.comFollow us on X:Podcast: @SabolBrothers John: @John_Sabol Scott: @ScottSabolFox8 The Press Play Podcast Network Follow us on X: @PressPlayPods For sponsorship plans and more information, please email admin@pressplaypodcasts.com

Russell Earl "Bucky" Dent is a retired Major League Baseball player and manager widely remembered by fans for his tenure with the New York Yankees … and his famous tie-breaking home run versus the Boston Red Sox at the end of the 1978 season. The St. Louis Cardinals originally selected Dent in the 1st round of the 1970 amateur draft but he did not sign with the team, allowing the Chicago White Sox to take him the 1st round (6th overall) of the June Secondary later that year. The right-handed shortstop spent four seasons (1973-1976) in Chicago, finishing second in 1974 Rookie of the Year balloting (behind Mike Hargrove). Bucky also appeared on the first of what would be three All-Star Game rosters (1975, 1980, 1981) while with the team. However, Dent had trouble successfully succeeded Luis Aparicio at short, compiling a .239 batting average and 209 RBI, and eventually was traded to the Yankees (1977-1982), where he became part of Bronx Bomber history. Dent hit a three-run homer that gave the Yankees a 3-2 lead in the 1978 AL East division play-off game versus the BoSox … an unlikely event as Dent had hit only 40 home runs in a dozen seasons in the big leagues. Dent batted .417 in that year's World Series, earning MVP honors as New York topped the Los Angeles Dodgers. At the end of his professional career, Bucky spent time with the Texas Rangers (1982-1983) and the Kansas City Royals (1984) before retiring with a .246 batting average and 423 RBI. He compiled a 36-52 record managing the Yankees at the end of the 1989 and beginning of the 1990 seasons.

Sean Casey played twelve years in the Major Leagues while going to three All Star games (1999, 2001 and 2004). The former first baseman was hitting coach for the New York Yankees (2023) and currently serves as an analyst on the MLB Network. Sean was nicknamed “The Mayor” by his fellow MLB players for his outgoing personality and infectious energy. Sean retired in 2008 with the Boston Red Sox and finished his career as a .302 hitter with 130 home runs and 735 RBI. He was inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Baseball Hall of Fame in 2012. In addition to sharing his infamous Bob Feller story, Seans details his time with the Yankees and gives his take on Aaron Judge, Juan Soto and the 2024 season. You will be encouraged as Sean talks about his faith, family, and post-career activities including his own podcast, The Mayor's Office.

PASSED BALL SHOW #74 4/4/2013 Part 1 WITH DON SLAUGHT AND MIKE HARGROVE; I open the program by laughing at the fact that fans run away from their pre season feelings about a team once the season starts. I speak with former MLB catcher Don Slaught about his time with the Royals, Yankees and Pirates and how he separated his responsibility of catching from being a consistent .300 hitter. Former Indians manager Mike Hargrove talks about winning the two AL Pennants in 1995 and 1997 and being part of the "10 cent beer night" disaster as a player

This week on the podcast we are joined by our friend, the truly hilarious actor and comedian Paul Brittain, who you might know from "Saturday Night Live," "Trophy Wife" or a sketch based on "Three Men And A Baby" back in Chicago many years ago that Vanessa is still obsessed with. In that spirit, this episode includes Vanessa and Paul recounting their halycon days of cutting their teeth in the Windy City comedy scene, us all reminiscing about the way that seemingly carefree sitcoms used to tackle serious issues and Jonah being impressed that Paul saw the post-hardcore act Hum back in the nineties. For the main event, we recall the convenience of the print version of TV Guide and the frustration of the endlessly scrolling TV Guide channel, the story of which we hope is someday made into a made-for-TV movie (meta). We also play a captivating round of "Legit Moan or Unnecessary Groan" where we discuss grocery store etiquette, loud television commercials and whether baseball players should charge kids for their autographs. We dare you to find another podcast that covers everyone from Mario Lopez to Mike Hargrove, but if you do, we might just buy your ticket to a charity spaghetti dinner. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's the Season 6 Finale and we saved our best for last. Powered by interviews from a proposed documentary we give an oral history of the infamous Ten Cent Beer Night in Cleveland, Ohio on June 4, 1974. We hear from the people who were there that muggy night on Lake Erie when a baseball game became a beer-fueled riot. Special thanks to our friends John and Seth from Grey Lodge Productions for sharing over 7 hours of their interviews with those who lived through Ten Cent Beer Night. Ten Cent Beer Night, the misguided promotional idea by the Cleveland Indians turned violent as over-served Clevelanders stormed the field and attacked the players. We hear the story told through the words of the players, announcers, umpires, journalists, photographers and even the son of the Indians Executive VP. Mike Hargrove, first baseman that night for the visiting Texas Rangers, shares his story of that night on the field at Cleveland Municipal Stadium, two decades before he became the Cleveland Indians manager. We sit down with filmmaker Seth Moherman about the ridiculous scene that night in Downtown Cleveland when the Cleveland Indians decided to sell beer for 10 cents a cup. We look at the economic and political troubles that defined the summer of 1974: the oil crisis, Watergate, stagflation and high unemployment numbers. We also discuss the deteriorating situation in the City of Cleveland in the 1970s and how the money problems of the Cleveland Indians led to this event happening in the first place. Also, we analyze the career and antics of the Rangers manager, Billy Martin, and his role in Ten Cent Beer Night. You can learn more about Martin and just how wild 1970s baseball was in our guest Mike Shropshire's excellent book Seasons in Hell.

In this episode Mad Dog is digging up the story of one of the greatest baseball teams to never win the world series, the 1995 Cleveland Indians. Led by the likes of Albert Belle, Jim Thome, Manny Ramirez and Kenny Lofton, the mid-90s Indians were one of the most explosive offenses of the decade. This squad would also advance to the World Series in 1997, but the 1995 version was better as they would dominate the American League, winning 100 games and finishing 30 games ahead the runner-up in their division. Their ferocious offense would face their greatest test in the '95 World Series when they matched up against the Atlanta Braves and their hall of fame pitchers. Mike Hargrove was the manager for Cleveland and joins Mad Dog for more insight on the season (25:30)

Former Cleveland Indians and MLB manager Mike Hargrove joins Baskin and Phelps ahead of the Tribe's home opener against Kansas City, with the former skipper talking about past experiences on home openers, and how the team can be okay despite the offseason loss of a player like Francisco Lindor.

Mike Snyder spoke with Mike Hargrove & Jim Ingraham on their new book "Mike Hargrove and the Cleveland Indians: A Baseball Life." There were spectacular highs―Rookie of the Year, All Star, World Series . . . And devastating lows―the end of his playing days, a tragic accident in his second year as manager, a heartbreaker in the World Series, being fired from the job he loved . . . Mike Hargrove truly spent a lifetime in baseball. From the sandlots of tiny Perryton, Texas, to the biggest stage, Game 7 of the World Series, he played, coached, managed . . . lived the game for four decades.

In the 1970's the Cleveland Indians failed in their annual quest to reach the postseason, the ALCS and World Series. However, they played their hearts out and Cleveland Municipal Stadium was the place to be to enjoy the Tribe in person.

Host: Indre Viskontas The month of October is associated with falling leaves, autumn winds and hallowe'en. But for sports fans in the US, it also signals a high point in America's national pastime: baseball's postseason. After a long run of 162 games, the last weeks of October are ripe with matchups in which legends are made and broken. Any skeptic worth his or her salt, however, can't help but marvel at the diversity and frequency of ritualistic behaviors on display amongst these world class athletes. What is it about baseball that cause intelligent, highly-motivated, elite athletes to refrain from washing their underwear, to eat fried chicken or crunchy taco supremes, to put pennies in their supporters after every win, or chew the same piece of gum night after night, saving it under a baseball cap? The repertoire of routines that batters engage in while stepping into the box is often as choreographed as a ballet: with commentators going so far as calling Mike Hargrove the human rain delay because of his extended dance. To navigate this swamp of superstition, we talked to Bruce Hood, a Canadian-born experimental psychologist, whose popular book SuperSense: Why We Believe in the Unbelievable, has shed light on our tendency towards irrational behaviors. Professor Hood is the director of the Bristol Cognitive Development Centre at the University of Bristol, where he studies the origins of supernatural beliefs, intuitive theory formation, inhibitory control and general cognitive development. He has been awarded a Sloan Fellowship among other honors, and is a Fellow of the American Psychological Science society. In 2011, he delivered the Royal Institution Christmas lectures broadcast by the BBC to over 4 million viewers. His most recent book is the Self Illusion, which calls into question our view of ourselves as coherent, integrated individuals.
