    Rick Wise joins us this week to talk about his outstanding career. Rick's career was lengthy, 1963-1982, with only parts of 3 seasons in the Minor Leagues. He started 8 games for the 1964 Phillies in a year in which the Phillies collapsed at the end of the year. Rick was traded for Steve Carlton in 1972 and gets a bad rap for that trade, but he had a good year with the Cardinals that year (16-16) in which a lot of his 16 losses were by 1-run. In 1974 he was traded to the Boston Red Sox and led the staff in wins with 19 during the World Series year in 1975. He ended his career with stints in Cleveland and San Diego. We go Back When There Was Baseball and let Rick Wise share some great stories around his career in baseball.
