Growing up in Seminole, FL (Pinellas County) Brett Phillips quickly became a hometown hero in Tampa Bay in 2020 when he had a walkoff in the World Series playing for the Tampa Bay Rays - a story he vividly tells in this podcast as he remembers every detail and feeling that was going on, into that at bat.
But more than his big baseball moments and personality - Brett talks about creating his new role with the Tampa Bay Rays and really advocating for himself in what he could bring to the table - something we all could learn a thing or two about! This is Brett's first season as the Tampa Bay Rays Brand Management Executive - a role focused on bringing the fun and engagement to Rays fans at Tropicana Field.
Most importantly, it's Brett's outlook, positivity, and faith that make him one of those people in life you just want to be around - his good intentions, good heart and willingness to get the job done - no matter what it takes - even if it means creating your own role!
