Tom Sturdivant spent 10 years pitching in Major League Baseball for several different teams, but his greatest success came while he was with the New York Yankees. There he won 2 World Series & maybe even better than that, he became life long friends with men like Mickey Mantle, Billy Martin, Whitey Ford and many more legends of 1950’s baseball. Tom Sturdivant IV, Tom’s grandson with whom he was very close with, joins us to tell us some of the stories his grandfather told him as well as his own personal experiences meeting some of these legendary players. Plus, Mark and Jeff play another round of Wax Pack Heroes with a pack of 1990 Donruss.
