About this listen

Invited to a Nashville tryout, Morristown’s Warren “War” Sanders made the team and remained with the club for two seasons.

Instrumental in Nashville’s first two Southern Association championships in 1901 and 1902 when the left-hander was 21-9 and 22-12, his contract was sold to the St. Louis Cardinals for the 1903 season.

He did not have the same success in his later career; his baseball story is in this episode!
