We're excited to welcome retired Stanford Baseball pitcher Sahil Bloom for a somewhat non-traditional podcast. In this episode, Sahil reflects on lessons learned over a baseball career - both in terms of training and competition - and highlights the important benefits he derived from the process of preparing for college baseball and competing in the PAC 12. There are lessons for everyone, but particularly for young players and parents as they undertake this process.
