It is amazing how we’ve gone from MSM applauding Rick Monday in 1976 to applauding Kaep in 2016 (and even up to this day).
Monday was on the Cubs at the time, but the Dodgers saw an opportunity and traded for him and made him a Dodger. We Dodger fans always loved him because of that moment.
He had a solid baseball career and moved into the Announcer's booth after his playing days were over.
