Episode Notes
Chuck Garfien talks with legendary broadcaster Bob Costas to revisit iconic White Sox history, including the 1983 "Winning Ugly" team and the All-Star Game that lit up Comiskey Park that same summer. Bob also reflects on broadcasting giants Vin Scully and Harry Caray and shares his favorite memory from Later with Bob Costas: a sit-down with Paul McCartney that he calls the highlight of his career.
Chuck gets Bob's thoughts on calling Bulls games at Chicago Stadium, the dynasty years with Michael Jordan, and the moment he realized he had just called a historic shot against the Utah Jazz. Plus, Bob weighs in on Ozzie Guillen, the upcoming 80s-themed game where he'll join Steve Stone in the booth, and whether this current White Sox team has a path to October.
