33: Lyman Bostock-MLB

June 26, 2018

Lyman Bostock was a superstar in the making for the California Angels when his life was tragically cut short after being in the wrong place at the wrong time. A hitting machine, he compiled a .311 batting average in 3-plus years. His potential was limitless and the Angels were hoping to win a championship with Lyman at the center of the team. Author K. Adam Powell who wrote the book, ““Lyman Bostock, The Inspiring Life and Tragic Death of A Ballplayer,” joins the podcast to talk about Lyman Bostock.
