Episode 288: David Mellor - a podcast by Barstool Sports

Today we are joined by head groundskeeper of Fenway Park David Mellor. For those who don't know, David's life story is a wild one so buckle up. In the Mellor interview we discuss how he wanted to be a major leaguer and had a legitimate chance of doing so before he was shockingly hit by a car outside a McDonanld's, how he hurt himself even further during physical therapy, how he was hit by a car AGAIN in a bizarre incident on the field in Milwaukee, how difficult the next handful of years were for him, how much his service dog Drago has helped him over the years, his transition to becoming the head groundskeeper at Fenway, his favorite experience during the 4 World Series titles he's seen since he's been in Boston, a hilarious Nomar story, how the field used to flood so much that fish started showing up in the dugout and much more! After the interview we talk where this Red Sox season went wrong and what positives we can take from such a disappointing year. Enjoy!
