John Cangelosi story on Herd Chronicles
Here’s a story about John Cangelosi on the Herd Chronicles, a website dedicated to the history of the Buffalo Bisons.
John played for the Triple-A franchise in 1985, 1988, and 1990.
Interestingly, he was a member of two separate organizations during those stints.
You see, the Buffalo franchise was a Chicago White Sox affiliate when he first played for the Bisons as a 22-year-old.
In the next two stints, the Bisons were the Triple-A club of the Pittsburgh Pirates. John played for the Pirates organization from 1987 to 1990.
Of course, my book on John’s career can be found here.

Blast from the past: Interview from 10+ years ago
Here’s something I found online this week: an interview that I did back in Dec. 2008, talking about my early books. Wow! Talk about a blast from the past!
This will never happen again…
… John Cangelosi ahead of Mike Trout! Will never happen again – so it’s nice to have photos of this 😉
