Show-Me Sports Legacies

Growing the Game: Baseball in 2024

August 09, 2024 Jeff Crowley, Host

An interview with NCMC Head Men's Baseball Coach Donnie Hillerman is the catalyst for a panel discussion on the state of baseball and the effect of rule changes on the game and fan experience.  The new Russ Derry Practice Facility for baseball and softball at NCMC is featured plus some Royals trade deadline evaluation.  A fun piece on a dad/daughter visit to Chief's Training Camp in St. Joseph and a brief Chiefs discussion caps this fourth episode.

Show-Me Sports Legacies takes a story approach to learning about high school, junior college, D2 & D1 college sports and our beloved professional franchises in Kansas City and St. Louis. We talk to people who have made their mark as coaches, players, scouts and business people after coming from small towns or little known communities or neighborhoods. We talk to people who are seeking to establish their reputation and break into sports career success. With a fan's perspective we look at how to encourage and support people who have that sporting dream.
