Show Notes
Sherm Lollar is often overlooked in baseball history, but as Chuck Garfien reveals in this conversation with Lollar’s son Pete, he may very well be the greatest catcher in White Sox history. Pete shares stories about growing up around the White Sox of the 1950s, what made his father such a special player and person, and what baseball was really like in that era—from catching Luis Aparicio batting practice to watching his dad catch Hoyt Wilhelm’s knuckleball.
