"Suds Series" with Jonathan Daniel
Manage episode 360241187 series 2862894
There was a lot more to the 1982 World Series than fans know.
Not only was it between the St. Louis Cardinals of the National League and the Milwaukee Brewers then of the American League, it was the personification of the two cities and its strangle hold on the beer market.
In the early 1980s the cities of St. Louis and Milwaukee was embroiled in what was called the "Beer Wars" between Anheuser-Busch in St. Louis and Miller Brewing in Milwaukee. As it turned out this "war" spilled out (excuse the pun) onto the baseball diamond.
In this episode of Historically Speaking Sports host Dana Auguster is joined by author Jonathan Daniel to talk about his new book "Suds Series: Baseball, Beer Wars and the Summer of 82".
Later in the show we will send a shout out to Jack Johnson, the first African-American Heavyweight Champion. He held the title during the first two decades of the 20th century and was simultaneously the most famous and the most notorious black man in the world.
And of course we have our Top Five historical events of the week including the debut of baseball's first black manager, one of college basketballs greatest buzzer-beater and Atlanta's greatest sports moment.
All that and more and dont forget to subscribe to the show to get new episodes when they are released.
