This week each of us bring a different player to the table that had their career marred by injury. It sucks to have a shining career ended by injury or health, but which players did we think really had it bad? For our This Week In Baseball, we discuss the dedication of the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1939. Speeches and festivities abound, but just how much of an impact the Hall's very existence had on baseball?

Our Hall of Famer this week is Waite Hoyt. He brought wins to the table, but did he have enough oomph to deserve a spot in Cooperstown? For our parting shots we speak on the life and impact of Mary Dobkin, the return of Rhys Hoskins to Philly, and the colorful history of the foreign ballplayer in Japan.

Enjoy our new crop of weekly commercials in between segments with Roger Maris' baseball game, Bob Uecker for Miller Lite, and Bert Blyleven for Century 21!

Please join us as we discuss baseball topics and we continue our mission to make The Hall small. We hope you'll enjoy the ride.
