Avis de l'équipe
The late Hall of Famer Jim "Catfish" Hunter retired from baseball with a remarkable five World Series rings, a Cy Young Award, a perfect game, and 224 wins - all by the age of 33. In this candid interview with esteemed sports journalist Ann Liguori, the North Carolina pitcher spins yarns on everything from the origins of his unusual nickname to his contentious relationship with high-handed owners George Steinbrenner and Charlie Finley. Hunter's career with the A's and Yankees serves as a backdrop for broader changes in baseball. Whether he's recalling westward expansion, the advent of free agency, or the media savvy Finley's gimmicky penchant for mustaches and brightly colored uniforms, Hunter's story is that of baseball in the modern era.
