FOX Sports 97-9's Rob Dibble Show was broadcasting live from the PGA Travelers Championship for a week during the heatwave.
Ben Darnell of The Rob Dibble show brought a vegetable into the golf course; a head of cabbage, which prompted a lot of questions and a history lesson!
Ben and Rob Dibble then explained the trick of staying cool in the heatwave by placing a cabbage leaf under a ball cap, a technique passed along to Rob Dibble by former Cincinnati Reds equipment manager, Bernie Stowe.
This unconventional technique was also used by Babe Ruth and our listeners also let us know that women have been using cabbage leaves to ease mastitis caused by breastfeeding too. Cabbage has many healing properties from helping stay cool to minimizing swelling, curing headaches, coughs and more.
