64: Brovia/Bauman/Crues-MLB

September 03, 2019

Joe Brovia, Joe Bauman and Bob Crues enjoyed spectacular, if not, historic minor league baseball careers. They were heroes in the cities in which they played and left many scratching their heads as to why they never got the opportunity to play Major League Baseball. In fact, only Brovia appeared in the Majors, despite years in which Bauman hit 72 HRs and Crues hit 69 HRs. Gaylon H. White author of “Left On Base in the Bush Leagues,” joins the podcast for a wonderful discussion about all three.
