OKLAHOMA CITY -- Major League Baseball Hall-of-Famer Ryne Sandberg returned to Oklahoma City for the first time in years on Thursday.

Sandberg played with the Oklahoma City 89ers, then an affiliate with the Philadelphia Phillies, in 1981.

While chatting with Toby Rowland, he recounted stories of the old All Sports Stadium, such as trash cans flying through the air during a tornado warning.
