Jimmy Scott's High & Tight: The Jim French Interview

Jim French was a catcher for the Washington Senators (the second Washington Senators, years before the Washington Nationals) from 1965 to 1971.  In this startling, new and controversial interview... Wait.  This isn't Dateline.  Let me start over.  In this uplifting chat, Jim speaks about how he felt when his career was done at the ripe old age of 29 and how he pursued a career as a securities attorney.  Although he doesn't speak a word of French, Jim did pass the bar exam in two states, California and Colorado, and also serves as an expert witness at securities trials.  Listen intently to his stories of batting against Tommy John, his one game in left field, and surviving life after baseball.  If you want to see what it's like to start all over again, take some time with Jim French.
