Jimmy Scott's High & Tight: The Monte Irvin Interview | Jimmy Scott's High & Tight

A great interview of Gotham legend Monte Irvin by my good buddy, Jimmy Scott...

How often do you get to speak with somebody who's 90-years old? Maybe you're fortunate enough to have a grandparent of family friend who's been around the block since 1919. But if you love baseball, how many times do you get to speak to somebody, or hear somebody, talk about baseball in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s? And then, how many times can they say, "I played back then." Not too many. That's why we're especially fortunate to have Monte Irvin still around.
