73. Scott Hairston: A Family Tradition of MLB Success

Former Major League Baseball player Scott Hairston spent 10 years (2004-2014) playing at the highest level.  His successful journey in professional sports saw him make stops in Arizona, San Diego, Oakland, New York (Mets), Chicago (Cubs), and Washington DC.  Scott was a man of many talents and he used his versatility as an outfielder and second baseman to be a key contributor on several successful teams.  Scott also comes from a unique family.  The Hairstons are only 1 of 3 families in baseball history to have 3 generations play at the Major League level.  Family member who were professional baseball players include his grandfather, Sam; his uncle, Johnny; his father, Jerry Sr; and his older brother, Jerry Jr.   In this episode we talk about what it was like growing up in a baseball family.  What was it like to be surrounded by that level of mentorship.  We also talk about Scott's 10-year career and what baseball taught him as an individual and a team player.  But, that's not why I wanted Scott on the Bullpen Sessions podcast. Scott has made a successful transition to his "2nd chapter" in life.  Today, Scott has taken his talents and applied them to another passion, craft wine.  Today, Scott is involved with Scout & Cellar, a craft winery dedicated to produce clean wine free of pesticides and chemical additives. Scott's career in sports and business has defined by achieving success at every level and I can't wait to share his story with you!
