81: Andy Pafko-MLB

May 26, 2020

Andy Pafko played the outfield for the Chicago Cubs with reckless abandon during his time with the team in the 1940s. One of the game’s best outfielders, Pafko was a star for the Cubs and helped lead Chicago to the National League Pennant in 1945. He also helped the Brooklyn Dodgers to the 1952 National League Pennant and the Milwaukee Braves to a World Series win in 1957. Author Joe Niese who wrote the book, “Handy Andy,” joins SFH for a wonderful discussion about the career of Andy Pafko.
