    • Baseball

Every seasoned player knows the crack of the bat isn't just about hits and home runs; it's about the life lessons learned on the diamond. Sit back as I, Ken Carpenter, chat with Otterbein University's esteemed baseball head coach, George Powell. Celebrating his 600th career win, Coach Powell doesn't just recount his victories but shares the heart of the game, the mentorship that shapes young players, and the life-changing moments that reverberate far beyond the outfield.

Strap in for an emotional journey through the annals of baseball, where passion and resilience triumph over adversity. As we explore the profound influence of mentors and family, Coach Powell and I dissect the recruitment minefield of Division III baseball, where the next MVP could be the walk-on no one saw coming. You'll hear firsthand how technology's seismic shift has turned recruiting on its head, forcing coaches to adapt or be left in the dust. This episode isn't just a playbook rundown; it's a testament to the human spirit woven into the fabric of America's favorite pastime.

As we round third and head for home, get ready for tales that capture the essence of coaching. From a varsity record that'll have you on the edge of your seat to the under-the-radar players who became the heroes of their own stories, these anecdotes are not just about baseball—they're about the indelible marks left on those who live and breathe the sport. Lean in as we pay homage to the unsung heroes off the field, the assistant coaches whose strategies and support are the game's backbone. This episode is more than a game recap; it's a celebration of the journey, the people, and the love of the game that connects us all.
