The Baseball Lifer

The Baseball Lifer with Howie Karpin and Scott Orgera

My guests are the authors of the new book 976-1313: How Sports Phone Launched Careers and Broke New Ground." Howie spent more than a decade behind the scenes at Sports Phone's main office in New York. In partnership with Scott, they put together a book full of stories from the many voices callers like me heard when we called Sports Phone for the latest scores. Many of the people behind those voices made it big in or out of sports. The book tells their stories.
