About this listen

 Baseball Hall of Famer Phil Rizzuto spent his entire baseball career from 1941 to 1956 as a shortstop with the New York Yankees. In Rizzuto's rookie year, his teammate Joe DiMaggio had his most successful year, and it made a deep impression. Later Rizzuto was named the American League's MVP in 1950. He still holds numerous World Series records for shortstops. Later Rizzuto was beloved as a radio and television sports announcer for the Yankees.

Here Rizutto is interviewed by Ann Liguori, an award-winning luminary in sports broadcasting with a celebrated career that spans two decades. Liguori has interviewed some of the most legendary sports personalities, drawing out their success stories, their opinions on a variety of issues, and their love of the game.
