Skip Nipper

During the 61-year existence of the Southern Association, only three players hit for an average over .400, and all three played for the Nashville Vols.

In all, 18 players who led the league wore a Vols uniform, and in this episode I name each one. Insight into the controversy of Hugh Hill's .416 batting average in 1902 is explained, too, and I hope you will listen!
