Reggie Smith, a seven-time All-Star and 1981 World Series champion, joins "Stitch x Stitch'' this week for a powerful, firsthand look at baseball’s labor history and the civil rights struggles woven into his early career. From confronting racism in minor league towns to absorbing the lessons he learned from Marvin Miller, Jackie Robinson and other influential figures, Smith explains how his experiences shaped his commitment to the MLBPA and the advancement of Players who would come after him.


Stitch x Stitch, a weekly podcast hosted by Jerry Crasnick, features conversations with dozens of Players who share personal stories while reflecting on the union’s growth and enduring legacy. You can find it on Apple, Spotify, online or wherever you get your podcasts.
