Our good friend — and great catcher — Jake Smith joins us to reminisce about…
- His path from East Peoria HS to Illinois Central College to Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville and pro ball
- His wild entrance into pro ball (note: Jimmy Gonzales still very much alive. The man who sadly passed away was Brian Wilson)
- Catching Pat Mahome Sr. in indy ball and babysitting his kid…whoever that is.
- Hitting a ground-rule triple
- Coaching youth baseball today.
