Summary

What a fun interview with a guy who's  seen quite a bit throughout his career.  My guest today, Mickey Hatcher,  was one of the key players on the Los Angeles Dodgers team that won the world series back in 1988.  A true athlete, he played both baseball and football in college and his stories of his collegiate experience can't help but make you laugh.  Hear him explain his meeting Mickey Mantle in New York and a host of other wonderful memories including his relationship with Tommy Lasorda.  It's all in my podcast today.   Learn more about your ad choices.
