Episode 263 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we’re back on the diamond discussing Ryne Sandberg.
Thought by some in the Philadelphia Phillies’ organization that he was nothing more than a Utility Infielder, the talented Sandberg emerged as a star during the 1980s & 1990s for the Chicago Cubs.
The power hitting Second Baseman was a 10x All-Star, a 9x Gold Glove Award honoree and a 7x Silver Slugger winner. Sandberg won the NL MVP in 1984 and helped the Cubs capture the NL East that season and in 1989.
A .285 career hitter, Sandberg finished his Hall of Fame career with the then-record for most Home Runs by a Second Baseman of all-time.
After he retired, Sandberg managed in the Minor Leagues for the Cubs. Then his baseball career came full circle when served as the Manager in Philadelphia from 2013-2015.
