Very few little league players get to have a coach that has Major League experience mentoring them. I was lucky enough to learn a lot about pitching from our guest today, Mike Witt. He pitched in the Big Leagues for 12 years and some of you may know him as 1 of 23 pitchers to ever throw a Perfect Game. We discuss his upbringing in Southern California and playing for his home town Angels. He talks about his 2 All-Star appearances in '86 and '87, how the different eras of pitching compare, and also being traded to the Yankees for Dave Winfield. You will definitely learn a lot in in this episode. Subscribe, Rate and Review! Thank you and enjoy...

One of my favorite, and in depth episodes so far in terms of peeling back the layers in sports psychology. My long time friend Bernie Holliday, (who helped me for a few of my professional baseball years), shows you why the mental game is so important in sports and daily life. We discuss his unlikely journey from coaching tennis, to training soldiers and cadets at West Point, and his transition from working with the Army to professional baseball. Lots of great concepts and examples of what he does to get athletes ready to perform at the highest level every night. Let me know what you think and what you took from this episode!
