Before there was "Macho Man", Randy Savage was beating the bushes trying to get to the major leagues. Randy Poffo was an outfielder, catcher and first baseman in the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds organizations from 1971-1974.

In 1973, the 20-year-old Poffo was a teammate of a fresh faced rookie outfielder, Tito Landrum, in Orangeburg, S.C., playing together under the tutileage of Jimmy Piersall. Landrum enjoyed a nine-year career in the majors, winning a World Series with the Baltimore Orioles in 1983 and appeared in the 1985 World Series filling in brilliantly for an injured Vince Coleman.

Landrum spoke via telephone from New York about his former teammate.
