Show notes

The road that Jake Burger has traveled from being drafted by the White Sox in 2017 to his walk off grand slam on Sunday against the Tigers reads like a Hollywood movie. Chuck Garfien speaks with Nick Hostetler, the team’s scouting director from 2015-2019, about what he saw in Jake when they drafted him, his two Achilles tendon injuries and what Jake told Nick in the trainers room after he suffered the first one, what it took for him to find his way to the majors, Burger’s surprising speed on the bases, the emotion Nick feels when Burger does something great with the White Sox and more.
