About this episode
Hall of Famer Ted Simmons, class of 2020, sits down with Jon Paul Morosi to reflect on his long and underappreciated journey to Cooperstown. From being humbled as a rookie by Cardinals legend George Kissell to the biggest adversity he faced once he made it to the big leagues to helping lead the Brewers to their first and only pennant, Simmons discusses the many lessons he learned as a player and explains why he's most proud of his accomplishments off the field.
