108: Zack Wheat-MLB

June 22, 2021

Zack Wheat was once named one of baseball’s 100 greatest. A career .317 hitter, Wheat is a name often overlooked by many, including Dodgers’ fans. But he was a star. Elected to the Hall of Fame in 1959, his name is often overlooked by Dodgers’ fans coast-to-coast, and it shouldn’t be. In fact, when talking about the greatest Dodgers of all time, Zack Wheat should be at the top of almost every list and on this episode of SFH, author Joe Niese joins to talk about this great, but forgotten star.
