On this episode of Our American Stories, more than three hundred sets of brothers have played Major League Baseball, yet few have left a mark like the DiMaggio brothers. In this segment, author Tom Clavin tells the family story behind Joe DiMaggio, his older brother Vince, and his younger brother Dom DiMaggio, tracing their journey from a fisherman’s household in San Francisco to All-Star outfields in New York and Boston. Along the way, we hear how Joltin Joe built the legendary Joe DiMaggio hit streak, why Dom DiMaggio became a beloved Boston star in his own right, and how the quiet rivalry between the brothers helped shape one of the most famous careers in baseball history.
