Episode Synopsis

I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.Ron Kittle had many setbacks in his 10 year professional baseball career. He was undrafted and signed right before spring training. Then, in his first game, after hitting a double in his first at bat, he suffered a serious neck injury sliding into home plate. How serious? When he finally saw a specialist several months later they were shocked that he was able to walk. Yet he had continued to play baseball that season! Ron talks about how that injury shaped his career and his outlook on life. He tells how a massive home run he hit in a semi-pro game nearly caused a car accident when the ball landed on the freeway, but also led to him getting to the major leagues. He gives his thoughts on the game today and how he found his passions and purpose after baseball. Ron brings perspective, positivity and a tough mindset to his life and to today’s episode. Ron’s websiteRon’s charityVisit my website: saxinthemorning.com for merchandise and other links. Follow us on social media: Instagram: @saxinthemorning_podcastYouTube: subscribe and watch shorts here  Remember, Sax in the Morning swag is now available on my Instagram site.
