Mel Proctor invades this edition of The Fifth Hour! The legendary gasbag spins yarns about Earl Weaver, Mickey Mantle and a gaggle of sports characters like Earl Weaver and Mickey Mantle from his 40-plus years behind the microphone. Mel called games for among others, the Orioles, Rangers, Nationals, Bullets, Clippers, and even the Triple-A Hawaii Islanders, broadcasting from the legendary dump known as the “Termite Palace.” That baseball circus inspired his new book, The Destitute Darlings—the insane story of a team going broke, bouncing checks and somehow winning a championship. You can’t make this stuff up! Grab your copy on Amazon or wherever books are sold. Hollywood, stop making superhero sequels and make this movie. Enjoy!
