You might know L.L. Bean for many reasons. But we're giving you a new way to look at the family-owned, world-famous outdoor retailer - a perfect example of the heart and soul of baseball fandom. Bradfo sits down with L.L. Bean executive chairman Shawn Gorman to not only talk about his history and infatuation with baseball, but the unbelievable connection his great-grandfather, L.L. Bean, had with the game, which includes hujnting trips with Babe Ruth, handmade mitts and batting gloves, specialized scorebooks and even a friendship with Ted Williams that led the the Hall of Famer to almost be part of the company.
