We are celebrating the Oakland A's dynasty (1972-1974) this week with our guest Nancy Finley. The A's won the World Series 3 consecutive years (1972-1974) and Nancy was a part of these seasons. Nancy is the daughter of GM Carl Finley and the niece of owner Charlie Finley. She shares stories about those years along with the rebuilding of the A's in the early 1980s. Nancy also wrote a book entitled Finley Ball which focuses on the years starting with Kansas City, the move to Oakland and culminating with the 3 world championships.

Wayne Causey joins us this week. Wayne was one of the "Bonus Babies" in the 1953-1957 rule, which meant that he had to be up with the parent club (Baltimore Orioles) for his first 2 years. After working his way up through the Minors after his first MLB stint, he was traded to the Kansas City Athletics before the 1961 season. His best years as an infielder were with the Kansas City A's in 1963-1964. He played in the Majors/Minors from 1955-1968 with the Baltimore Orioles, Kansas City A's, Chicago White Sox, California Angels and the Atlanta Braves. Join us as we go Back When There Was Baseball with our guest Wayne Causey.

We have a rare treat for you this week. Our guest played with Willie Mays, Orlando Cepeda, Ted Williams, Pete Rose, Frank Robinson, Tony Oliva, Harmon Killebrew and Rod Carew to name a few. His name is Al Worthington and he pitched in the Majors from 1953-1969. He was in the dugout when Willie Mays made that great catch in the 1954 World Series and with the Giants when they moved from New York to San Francisco. Al also played in another World Series with the Minnesota Twins in 1965. When his career ended, he got into coaching and guided Liberty University for 13 seasons with a career record of 343-189-1.
