My conversation with Denton is the perfect example of how everything in performance is more similar than dissimilar, meaning we can learn from the connections regardless of what it is. As the Pitching Coach at Lindenwood University, an 8-year baseball business owner, and time spent with the Houston Astros, Denton has some unique insights bridging the gap between all pieces of high performance.
