Dirty Kurts Dugout

The latest episode of Dirty Kurt's Dugout, hosted by Kurt Bevacqua, leads off with legendary pitcher Vida Blue taking a seat on the pine. Vida and KB reminisce about baseball in the 1970s and '80s and talk about Vida's current broadcasting work in San Francisco. Vida was dubbed "Mr. Bay Area Baseball" by the San Jose Mercury News last month, is a three-time world champion and is one of only five pitchers to start the All-Star Game for both leagues. He's also the answer to a tricky trivia question: Who was the last switch-hitter to win the American League MVP award? Former San Diego Padres president Ballard Smith and Forbes columnist Barry Bloom make encore appearances and bring stories and analysis that only baseball insiders can provide.
