Sinking the owner’s borrowed 50-foot yacht, emptying a hotel’s worth of fire extinguishers on your teammates, trading baseballs for food from kids in the stands, using dead snakes for entertainment in the locker room, redecorating furniture with a 12 gauge shotgun, showing Rookies their place, and Ted Williams belittling you like only he can and more, are just some of the on and off field antics of the early Texas Rangers as lived by The Amazing Emu.
Join Jim “Emu” Kern as he details his life in the Major League in the 1970’s and 1980’s with help from Ted Williams, Nolan Ryan, Brad Corbett, Frank Howard, Fergie Jenkins, and more.
These are the tales that led Emu to exclaim, “Believe me…I had a hell of a good time during my life in the game!”
