Bernie Corbett is joined this week by 17-year Major Leaguer Reggie Smith, who played in four World Series and was named an All-Star seven times in his career. The two talked for more than an hour and a half, so the conversation will be split into two parts.

They begin by talking about Reggie's upbringing, starting in Shreveport, Louisiana and moving out to Los Angeles. They discuss Reggie's father's involvement in the Negro Leagues before World War II and his own start in professional baseball in the Minnesota Twins organization. They move on to Reggie's time with the Boston Red Sox, including the Impossible Dream season of 1967 before being traded to the National League and the St. Louis Cardinals in 1974.
