He was one of the hosts on a post game radio show that a buddy of mine worked on. One of those shows where they play audio highlights, talk about the game, and then try and interview somebody relevant shortly thereafter. Lining up guests for that can be difficult for a number of reasons (language barriers, organizational inefficiency, players just not wanting to do it, etc.) but he said more times than not it was just a matter of LaTroy going into his cell phone and making it happen.
