I missed this in 2016. John Machado was a three time All Big Ten third baseman for the Buckeyes.. He had served six years in the Marines before enrolling at OSU and I had served four years in the USAF so we were both "senior citizens". He was a great player. I know because he kept me on the bench for one year and then I had to quit the team because I couldn't afford to play without a scholarship. Marty Karow, our coach, had a long career as OSU baseball coach and had been an All American QB at OSU.
