Bob Kendrick discusses the life and legacy of possibly the most talented man to ever pick up a baseball, the great John Wesley Donaldson, from his fourteen career no-hitters (3:14) to his 5000 career strikeouts, his electric fastball (5:19) to his arsenal of pitches the world had never before seen, and from his pitching career spanning 38 years and 700+ cities (6:39) to his groundbreaking hire as the Major Leagues' first Black scout (9:10). Then, Pete Gorton of The Donaldson Network stops by (15:42) to discuss his two decades of research into the life of John Wesley Donaldson.
