Oscar ”Heavy” Johnson was one of the greatest bats in the sport’s history… but his Hall of Fame case is much more complicated than that.

This one was a lot of fun. I have such a tough time separating Buddy Bell and Graig Nettles (and even Sal Bando and Darrell Evans and…). After doing a Pod of Fame on Buddy Bell and listening to this one on Graig Nettles I am…
…no better at differentiating their Hall of Fame cases. 😅
