  • In today's video we discuss Mark Kiger, a player who did something that no one else has ever done in baseball history, before or since.
    also massive thanks to Kevin Winterhalt for allowing me to interview him & Scott Brick for reading that bit of Moneyball

    I was fresh out of college working my first professional job when Kiger called me excited that he had just been called up. He asked me to get up to Oakland to watch him possibly make his debut. I couldn't do it but was so over the moon excited for him. Mark and I were friends and fellow competitors throughout our high school years. I watched that entire series and even talked to him right after the game when he made his debut. "I'm a f*kn triva question!" he said to me on the phone. I have told his story to many people over the years.
    Sadly Mark and I lost touch years ago. My man put in crazy work on the field but had some off field issues that I believe contributed to his decline in performance. It was really dope to see him have his moment in the bigs even if it was so short lived.
