Before he became an MLB All\u2011Star and one of the most electric base stealers of the 1970s, he was serving time in a Michigan prison\u2014where he played his first organized baseball game. In this episode, author Adam Henig joins host K.P. Wee to discuss his new biography, Baseball\u2019s Outcast The Story of Ron LeFlore, the first full modern account of LeFlore\u2019s rise, fall, and complicated legacy. Henig talks about LeFlore's childhood, Detroit, the prison system, Billy Martin\u2019s unlikely discovery, and the parts of LeFlore\u2019s story that have been forgotten or misunderstood.
