Description

Starkville | The great Willie Mays passed away last week. John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle joins the guys to talk about the life of Willie Mays, his thoughts on the current game of baseball, Willie's only regret in his life and much more. John co-authored "24: Life Stories and Lessons from the Say Hey Kid" with Willie Mays back in 2020.

Strange But True: We have a first in MLB and in Starkville! There was a walk off pitch clock violation or a "clock off" to end the Rockies-Nationals game on Saturday night.

Trivia from Brian St John- Who are the only two players to ever lead the League in Home Runs and Triples in the same season?
