Drew Robinson joins the Baseball Barista with Hunter Pence & Grant Brisbee this week to talk about his inspirational comeback story & how he wants to get "the message" out there to people dealing with mental health problems. He lost his right eye in a suicide attempt last year and fought his way back to make the opening day roster for the San Francisco Giants' Triple-A affiliate in Sacramento. He recently hit his first homer after coming back. He talks about how amazing it was to get all the calls and texts and all the social media love about his return to the field. He wants to get out the message about giving out good energy and love to everyone and not getting down. He gives advice to young players coming up in baseball and how you need to put in the hard work all the time to make it in life.

Hunter and Grant talk about the Giants-Dodgers rivalry and how Hunter could tell the fans were way more into the games with the Dodgers then most other games. And they break down the current standings and Hunter talks about a team that everyone should look out for.
