Kelly’s Westport Inn Presents: The Royalman Report – Willie Aikens – We’ve had a number of guests on the Royalman Report, but none have had as tumultuous a journey as Willie Mays Aikens. Aikens was a star in the 1980 World Series, hitting two homers in Games 1 and 4, as well as winning Game 3 with an RBI in the bottom of the 10th inning.
