Jack Heidemann joins us this week. Jack started his career at the age of 17 in the minor leagues and made his major league debut at the age of 19 in 1969 with the Cleveland Indians. Unfortunately, Uncle Sam called, and Jack had to delay his baseball career until 1970. Jack's career lasted through the 1979 season with his one year in St. Louis (1974) being his most productive. We look Back When There Was Baseball this week in an era where military service took precedence to baseball.
