In this episode of our podcast, Bob and Al Santorini have a detailed conversation about his stellar High School baseball career, where he was 35-1 with over 500 strikeouts for Union High School in New Jersey. Al was also selected in the first round of the inaugural Amateur Baseball Draft by the Atlanta Braves in 1966. He pitched one year in Atlanta, but was left unprotected and then scooped up by the San Diego Padres in the first round of the Expansion draft in 1969. Nowadays he works one-on-one baseball instruction with baseball players.
