Today on Convos with Coaches, we have the pleasure of interviewing former Baltimore Oriole and former training client of Coach C's, Chris Dickerson. Chris was drafted in the 16th round of the 2003 MLB Draft to the Cincinnati Reds and has also played for the Milwaukee Brewers, New York Yankees, Pittsburgh Pirates, Cleveland Indians, and Toronto Blue Jays. He is also the Co-Founder of Players for the Planet, INC., which educates environmental best practices to preserve playing fields and stadiums. In this episode, we discuss the transition between collegiate and professional play, what life is like after baseball, and what he believes makes a strong woman.
