Hall of Famer Bert Blyleven, class of 2011, sits down with Jon Paul Morosi to discuss his long and winding path to Cooperstown. Known for his devastating curveballs, the first Dutch-born member of the Hall of Fame shares how a Sandy Koufax anecdote shaped his father’s pitching philosophy, how a dugout conversation with Don Drysdale influenced his career, what he learned about pitching from Rod Carew and Tony Oliva, winning the World Series in Pittsburgh and how he always wanted to be relied on as the ace of the staff.
