Joe Torre Meets Live With Larry King of the Living Dead

larry_king.jpgMy guest tonight is the former Yankee manager who led the Bronx Bombers to 6 pennants and 4 world championships. His new book The Yankee Years has stirred up quite a bit of controversy in the NY press, and tonight here’s here to talk all about it. Here he is, Joe Torre.

torre2.jpgThanks for having me on, Larry.


larry_king.jpgJoe, I’ve always liked you, because you’re a Brooklyn boy just like me. Did you grow up a Dodger fan?


torre2.jpgI did, as a matter of fact.


larry_king.jpgDo you remember an outfielder by the name of Pete Reiser?


torre2.jpgSure, I saw him play a few times.


larry_king.jpgBoy, he woulda had a great career if he’d a learned to stop running into walls!


torre2.jpgYeah, that was a shame.


larry_king.jpgHow about Dixie Walker? “The People’s Cherce!”


torre2.jpgHe was pretty good. Didn’t get along with Jackie Robinson, though…


larry_king.jpgYou remember Dolph Camilli? Hell of a ballplayer.


torre2.jpgI know the name. He was a bit before my time. Are we gonna talk about my book, or…


larry_king.jpgFat Freddie Fitzsimmons!


torre2.jpgWhat about him?


larry_king.jpgHe played baseball!


torre2.jpgYeah, um, I guess he did…

Two hours later.

larry_king.jpg…not as good as Zack Wheat, of course, but Jeff Pfeffer was a solid player. And his name was almost as hilarious!


torre2.jpgI’m in hell, aren’t I? I died and I went to hell for ratting out my former players.


larry_king.jpgOh no, Joe, this isn’t hell. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve prayed for death! You wanna see hell? This is hell!
