Episode 83 - Popeye, Zim, The Gerbil, Baseball Lifer, Don Zimmer

Just imagine never collecting a single paycheck, your entire life, that you didn’t earn from baseball? That was the dream life that Don Zimmer got the chance to live. From player, to coach, to manager to baseball legend. The man with the face only a mother could love spent 66 years in the game, he wore uniforms for more teams than he didn’t. This week we talk about all facets of his career, from the metal screws in his head to the Boys of Zimmer. Plus we look to break to deadlock in season two of Wax pack Heroes with a couple of packs of 1989 Topps.

We pull ALOT of commons in Wax Pack Heroes. If you've got those Tom Foley or Ernest Riles cards just sitting around you can donate those commons to charity and maybe spark a child's interest in baseball and collecting. Find out more here: http://commons4kids.org/
