About this episode
Rafael Palmeiro, one of just seven players in MLB history to hit as many as 500 home runs with at least 3,000 hits, joined Courtney Finnicum for the latest edition of 'Pitch and Moan'. The former first baseman opens up about his career, including offering insight into his rise to stardom, time with Cal Ripken, and the circumstances that led to his controversial appearance before Congress, subsequent suspension, and ramifications on and off the field. Palmeiro also has some strong thoughts on his attempts to get back into the game and who should be in the Hall of Fame. It's an open and honest conversation with one of the greatest hitters the game has ever seen.
