Reliving Baseball's Golden Era, David Mantle, son of Mickey Mantle, on the Glory Days of Baseball

Baseball has been called America’s pastime. It’s a game that epitomizes summertime in the United States. People in every major city flock to the baseball diamond, eat hot dogs and caramel corn and cheer for their home team.

Most of us today take baseball for granted without thinking about how it all started. If you’re a true baseball fan, or sports history fan, well this week’s episode of Crackin Backs is for you.

The golden age of baseball, or baseball’s Golden Era, is the period from about 1920 to 1960. It is the historical period that immediately follows the dead-ball era (before World War I) but before the modern era. It’s in this time frame our guest, David Mantel, grew up. The son of the late, great, MICKEY MANTLE, David grew up surrounded by the likes, of Willy Mays, Roger Maris, Yogi Berra, Joe DiMaggio and Whitey Ford.

Today, we let David take us on a journey into the past, a walk down memory lane to bring this golden era back to life as only a person who lived it can.
