I have had over the years many favorite comedians. Red Skelton, Robin Williams, Richard Prior, George Carlin, just to name a few. But there have been some people connected to baseball who I found to be very funny also.
Probably the first I remember was Joe Garagiola. As most of us know, Joe played for the Cardinals and Pirates. He was a decent catcher, but not as good as his neighbor, Yogi Berra.
Joe first came to my attention when he was broadcasting baseball. He was a great story teller, and had so many great stories of his playing days.
