It’s Season Two, Episode Nine of Sports Out Of Time and this week we’re looking back at the cautionary tale of Denny McLain, the last 30 game winner in MLB history.
ON TAP: Randal and Sam revisit the life and career of the infamous Denny McLain. We’ll recap his travels through the minor leagues and into the majors, culminating in the peak of his career; winning the 1968 Cy Young and MVP during “The Year of the Pitcher”. Afterwards, we’ll look back the aftermath of his career and his dissent into gambling, racketeering and bookmaking that lead to his early retirement and issues with the law.
Finally, the lads briefly discuss the Los Angeles Lakers victory in the inaugural In-Season Tournament, Juan Soto’s trade to the Yankees and a 60-Second Movie Review with Randal. Plus, the Pop-Culture Time Machine and Trivia (Out Of) Time!
