Nicknamed "the Old Professor," the career of baseball's Casey Stengel spanned more than fifty years. Find out how a man trained as a dentist became a legendary manager -- setting records for consecutive first-place finishes (5), the most World Series games managed (63), and the most World Series wins (37).

Audio archives, transcripts and CDs will be available approximately 15 minutes after the program ends.

Guests

Steven Goldman
