Episode 52 -- the Wynton Bernard story Life Around The Seams
-
- Béisbol
Wynton Bernard is the feel-good story right now in baseball, a guy who spent the last 11 years playing minor league baseball, including two years of independent ball, who made his Major League Debut at age 31 on Friday, August 12, 2022 for the Colorado Rockies. The video of Bernard telling his mother Janet, via FaceTime, that he was going to the major leagues went viral with millions of views in just a few days.
Over the last 16 months, I've been able to watch and describe Bernard play for the Albuquerque Isotopes, get to know him as a person, and we've had a lot of interviews for the pregame show.
For this special episode of the Life Around the Seams podcast, we've compiled those interviews together, along with some highlights from games, and soundbytes from teammates Brandon Gold and Logan Cozart, Isotopes manager Warren Schaeffer, and Rockies front office executives Clint Hurdle and Chris Forbes.
