Mentorship and coaching don’t just shape athletes — they shape lives. In this heartfelt episode of The Grandpa Channel, Steve Harris sits down with Ty Yagi to remember his grandfather, Junior Yagi — a legendary baseball coach, disciplined farmer, and wisdom-filled mentor who quietly impacted generations.

From dugout talks to life advice, Junior’s style of mentorship wasn’t about shouting orders — it was about showing up, listening, and letting lessons sink in. Ty shares intimate stories about discipline, showing up for others, and how a coach’s love can reach far beyond the game. Along the way, we explore what it means to live “special” every day — a motto that Junior left as a lifelong guide.

Whether you’re a grandparent, parent, or coach, this conversation will inspire you to lead with heart and leave a legacy worth remembering.
