"Satchel" -- The Truth Behind the Baseball Legend
In a special pre-recorded broadcast, we look at the career of baseball marvel Leroy "Satchel" Paige through the eyes of his biographer, Larry Tye. In "Satchel: The Life and Times of an American Legend," Tye takes us back to the 1930s when the star pitcher of the Negro Leagues rose to prominence out of deep racial segregation and emerged as one of the most famous African-Americans of his time.
Host: Dave Iverson
Guests:
- Larry Tye, author of "Satchel: The Life and Times of an American Legend"
