Ten-time All-Star pitcher Randy Johnson joined Kruk in the booth during Phillies at Diamondbacks on Sunday, and Kruk reiterated the story about the Phillies trying to acquire Johnson during the 1993 trade deadline.
According to SportsTalkPhilly.com, Kruk first told this story before his 2011 induction into the Phillies Wall Of Fame.
Kruk apparently said in 2011 the Phillies were reluctant to give up either Mike Lieberthal or Tyler Green for Johnson.
