Former Cubs Outfielder/Now ESPN Broadcaster Doug Glanville | Tell Me A Story I Don't Know
Doug Glanville remembers the famous “Bartman” game at Wrigley Field in 2003. That’s because he was a member of the Cubs and part of one of the most infamous events in franchise history. Glanville has other more notable moments in the game including getting his 1,000th hit albeit, the day his father died.
But Glanville is far more important for the social subjects he tackles whether on a show he hosts on Chicago’s Marquee network entitled, “Class in session” or the class he teaches at the university of Connecticut: “Sports and Society.” Glanville also wrote for the New York Times tackling issues such as race in sports and PEDs in baseball.
Glanville’s parents were educators. “My mom taught math and my dad taught in Trinidad and Tobago until he got he went to med school at Howard University and became a psychiatrist.”
This very informative podcast gives you a peak into the life of a man who seeks to educate and it comes naturally to Glanville. His parents were both teachers.
Glanville also spends time as an analyst on ESPN Radio’s Sunday Night Baseball package.
Now a father of four, Glanville admits to wanting to stir the pot end result is to create harmony.
