Part two of our conversation with legendary baseball Hall of Famer Cal Ripken Jr. In the episode, the guys discuss Cal's role as a veteran leader on the great Baltimore Orioles teams of 1996 & 1997. Cal talks about playing through serious injury - what motivated him to keep playing through pain (hint: helping the team). He also talks about his move to third base in 1997 after already having a Hall of Fame career as baseball's best shortstop, in order to help firm up the team's defense. Why did he put aside ego and make the move? (hint: to help the team) The guys also dig into the lighter side of things with Cal's POV of an infamous 1998 brawl between the Orioles and the Yankees. The storylines involved sound straight out of the WWE!
