Larry Shenk, "The Baron", (Phillies PR 1964–2007)

I’ve always believed some of the best stories in baseball come from the people who weren’t on the field — and Larry Shenk, "the Baron", is living proof.

Larry (seen here at Connie Mack Stadium with HOFer Dick Allen) spent 44 years in Phillies PR. He was there for the highs, the heartbreaks, the strange and wonderful moments most fans never saw. From Connie Mack Stadium to the Vet, he brings those old ballparks (and the people in them) back to life in the best way.

This was one of those conversations where you just sit back, listen, and smile. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
