Manage episode 336339177 series 3129640
When you have the opportunity to speak with a baseball lifer like Coach Tom Gamboa, you realize how drastically things in the game have changed. Tom talked about scouting future first round picks armed with a back notebook and stop watch. He talks about managing in the low minors with NO OTHER COACHES! Just himself throwing 3 full rounds of batting practice everyday, working with pitchers and catchers and also running the game ALONE. Amazing! He discusses winter ball in Puerto Rico, analytics and why he's happy he retired when he did plus he talks about his recent book, available on Amazon called, "Tom Gamboa, My Life In Baseball". Super interesting conversation every fan will enjoy.
