Honoring Baseball Veterans ON Veterans Day

 

Happy Veterans Day from Is This A Great Game, Or What? In honor of all the baseball players who served our country, we have a very special edition of Team Tim. Well, technically, it's Team Dave (we'll explain why toward the end of the show!). Plus, we're sharing a bonus clip from an older interview with Yogi Berra's granddaughter, Lindsay Berra, about Yogi's service to our country.

Unfortunately, baseball has lost quite a man. Bob Boone passed away, and Tim Kurkjian shares some of his favorite stories about Bob, his father, and his children. The Boone family holds a special place in baseball history as the first and only three-generation All-Star family in MLB history.

We also dive into the awards, starting with Manager of the Year! Tim shares some incredible stories about both winners and explains what makes them so deserving of the honor.

Plus, we look ahead to tonight's Cy Young Award announcement, including Tim's picks and the reasoning behind them. And, of course, we have another edition of On This Date to keep the baseball fun going, even in the offseason.

Thanks so much for watching or listening, and as always, thanks for being part of our family!
