There are few events in sports history that stack up to the lasting influence of the 1948 World Series. Luke Epplin, author of, Our Team: The Epic Story of Four Men and the World Series That Changed Baseball, joins Jason, Barr, and Lynch to discuss the decade that changed society, race-relations, and the sports landscape forever. Luke details the interwoven paths of Larry Doby, Bill Veeck, Bob Feller, and Satchel Paige, and their improbable union on the Cleveland Indians.
