No Crying In Baseball

Andrew Whitener is the head strength and conditioning coach at DC Dynasty, and owner of District Performance.  Coach Whitey talks with Patti and the Pottymouth about the best hour of his week, the time spent training a group of players from DC Girls Baseball. He works with the girls on specific baseball conditioning and gives them the tools for lifelong health and fitness. The girls give him a different perspective on what it means to be a baseball player.

The conversation touches on the importance of good coaching, inclusivity, access, and an environment that encourages love of baseball, all things at which DCGB excels. There is a brief tangent about getting married during the NLCS, and a walk down memory lane for some Cleveland baseball fans.  Listen for the moment Patti catches her breath when Coach Whitey says the words “Kenny Lofton.”
