There was something special about Farrell Owens, who passed away two years ago on November 20, 2020.

His life impacted players and friends where his counsel guided and molded lives, not only as an authority on Nashville’s baseball history but in his ability to express a personal passion for baseball. Whether talking about his family, faith, or baseball, he told stories uniquely conveying his experiences. His honesty, demeanor, drawl, and smile drew listeners to him.

I was one of them.

In tribute to his friendship and love of baseball, listen to our conversation a few months before he died. It is good to hear his voice.
