There have been a lot of fascinating people to go through baseball over the years but we defy you to find one who is more intriguing than Moe Berg.
Berg was a genuine scholar. He spoke 12 languages including Latin and Sanskrit. He studied at Princeton and went to law school at Columbia.
No one expected a guy like that to go into pro baseball but he did. And while he was an average baseball player, at best, at some point he began a second, more furtive career: he became a spy.
Just when isn’t clear.
