"BUCKEYE CUBBIE: Woody English" features a 1995 interview with the 89 year old Newark Ohioan. He tells tales of his childhood, Newark High School, joining the Toledo Mud Hens and then the Chicago Cubs because his Mud Hen teammates Hack Wilson and Earl Webb had already signed on. He relates the fabled "Called Shot" by the Babe from his viewpoint on third base in the 1932 World Series.



The magnetic personality that made him the Cubbie captain shines through in this engrossing interaction. Also included are never-seen-before home movies by Woody: Catalina Island (where the Cubs had spring training), the infamous Hack Wilson (Woody's pal), and the dapper Mr. Elwood English posing on a Chitown rooftop in 1929.
