What it's Like to Be a Professional Baseball Player--Part 2

Professional baseball playerJoe Biagini is back on The Experience Podcast to continue his revealing, honest, droll take on playing pro ball.

Part 2 of our conversation is filled with quips, anecdotes and insights about the differences between playing in the major league and the minors; what it's like to be teammates with some "big names;" how it feels to be part of the pitching team that threw an historic no-hitter (and where they went to celebrate afterward); what the days are like on the road during the busy baseball season--including when he gets up each day (hint: breakfast is no longer served) and how his days are different when his wife is in town. 

Botanical gardens, anyone?
