R. A. Dickey's Climb to Fame
Manage episode 379266681 series 3334627
As a member of the Tennessee Vols baseball team, R. A. Dickey "had to win at everything," according to teammate Travis Copley. Dickey's long road to success included determination, perserverance, and dedication, and learning a new pitch: the knuckleball.
Listen as I tell about this family man's journey through minor and major league baseball, his 2012 National League Cy Young Award, and his charitable spirit. Along the way, he gleaned wisdom from the game he loved and applied it to life.
