-
- Béisbol
Jim Rushford is one of the most improbable players to ever reach the major leagues. Undrafted out of college, he played for two independent league teams, took a year off, then played two more years of independent baseball before even reaching affiliated minor league ball.
Along the way, Rushford worked numerous odd jobs, including pizza delivery guy, which is the inspiration for the title of his new book, "The Pizza Guy Delivers."
In Episode 53, Rushford reveals his remarkable journey to the majors, making his MLB debut at Wrigley Field, his first (and only) home run, playing another eight years, and the hilarious story of how met his wife in the dorms at San Diego State University.
