Travelers Indemnity Corp. v. WCAB (Cal. Ct. App. - May 28, 2025)

Are there many published appellate opinions involving former major league baseball players seeking workers' compensation benefits? I doubt it. But here's one.

The player -- George Zeber -- didn't have a lot of years with the Yankees; he primarily backed up Willie Randolph. Still. He was in the major leagues. No small feat.

(Oh, and before his playing days, he was drafted and deployed in Vietnam. I bet there aren't many players who fit that particular bill.)
