Listen "3-29-22: Pete Gray: 51 base hits with one arm"
Episode Synopsis
I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.This week I am talking about baseball players who overcame tremendous adversity. Yesterday it was a mangled hand but today it’s the loss of an entire arm. In 1945 Pete Gray, who had just one arm, was called up to the big leagues. He spent the year as a fourth outfielder but managed to hit .218 with 51 base hits that season. He had hit .333 the year before in the minor leagues and stole 68 bases. He undoubtedly was aided by an increased opportunity due to players being gone during the war but nonetheless, 51 base hits with one arm is a spectacular feat. This story is a prime example of someone not letting anything stand in the way of doing something they love, something they dream about. No one would ever think that man with one arm would become a professional hitter. So what excuse are you making today about why you aren’t chasing your dreams? Maybe stop for a moment and marvel at Pete Gray’s accomplishment and then think about trying for that dream again. Visit my website: saxinthemorning.com for merchandise and other links.
