Ep. 12-Telling stories with Jake Smith

Our good friend — and great catcher — Jake Smith joins us to reminisce about…

• His path from East Peoria HS to Illinois Central College to Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville and pro ball
• His wild entrance into pro ball (note: Jimmy Gonzales still very much alive. The man who sadly passed away was Brian Wilson)
• Catching Pat Mahome Sr. in indy ball and babysitting his kid…whoever that is.
• Hitting a ground-rule triple
• Coaching youth baseball today.
