Mike Rogodzinski spent parts of three seasons with the Phillies from 1973 to 1975. He was an outfielder, but most of his time in the big leagues was spent as a pinch-hitter. In fact, he still holds the Phillies rookie record for pinch-hits with 16 in 1973.

In Episode #83 of “1-on-1 with Matt Leon,” Matt catches up with Rogodzinski over Zoom to look back on his career. They talk about his success as a pinch-hitter, his time with the Phillies (he pinch-hit for Mike Schmidt four times!) and some of the other greats he got to play with and against.
