Tom Bruno has no
regrets about the way his life has worked out.
In the 1970s, he
was considered a prime major-league prospect, a
pitcher who showed flashes of brilliance in the
minors. And he fulfilled some of that promise in
the big show, pitching for three teams,
including the Royals, before his career came to
an end after four years.

Tom Bruno was signed by the Royals
as an amateur free agent in 1972 before eventually debuting in
Kansas City during the 1976 campaign. A 6-5 right handed
pitcher, Bruno went 1-0 while with KC in 12 MLB appearances
before the Toronto Blue Jays snatched him up in the 1976
Expansion Draft. From there, Bruno spent time with Toronto and
St. Louis, before launching a really cool life after baseball.
Tom recently joined Dave O to talk about that life as a
fishing and hunting guide, as well as going back to reminisce
about coming up through the Royals system, his memories of the
1976 season in KC, going to Toronto and St. Louis and much
more!
