On episode 101 of the Inside Athletic Training podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Michael T. Freehill—a rare blend of elite athlete and leading sports medicine physician. A former professional pitcher drafted by the California Angels, Dr. Freehill now serves as an Associate Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at Stanford University, specializing in shoulder and elbow care, and is the Head Team Physician for the  Athletics and Stanford University Baseball. 

His career has spanned the pitcher’s mound, groundbreaking medical research, and leadership within Major League Baseball’s medical community. Today, we’ll explore his journey from the clubhouse to the clinic, his work in building world-class sports medicine teams alongside MLB athletic trainers, and the innovations driving athlete care and performance at the highest level.
