Rey Palacios played for the Royals from 1988-1990 after being signed by the Detroit Tigers as an amateur free agent in 1982. Primarily a catcher, Palacios was known for his superb defensive ability and most notably, his arm. In fact, Palacios threw out 33% of would be base stealers during his MLB career. After his playing years were over, Palacios went from baseball hero to a real hero, as he’s a fireman in New York that was among the first respondents on 9/11. Dave O recently had the honor of talking with Rey for two hours about both his times in baseball, filled with AWESOME stories, and his current life of serving his community and country. A completely blunt, nothing off limits interview that you won’t want to miss. (Photo Courtesy Kansas City Royals)
