Next to baseball, history is one of my passions.
I love it so much that I host a weekly radio show about Orange County history on KUCI 88.9FM, the campus station here in Irvine.
So when I had a chance to blend my love for baseball with my love for history, I jumped at the chance.
To celebrate the beginning of another baseball season, I interviewed author and fellow AngelsWin.com writer Rob Goldman about the Angels’ inaugural season in 1961. We also talked about Rob’s own relationship with the team, from attending the very first game at Wrigley Field to his experiences as a bat boy in the 70’s.
I really enjoyed hearing Rob’s perspective so I thought you might like it too..
