In this episode of the SLN Podcast, Chad Capellman interviews Tyrone Brooks, Senior Director of the Field Staff Diversity Program at MLB. After twenty years moving up the ladder working as a scout and in the front office for the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Cleveland Indians and a formative decade with the Atlanta Braves, Tyrone talks about how the experience of interviewing to become the general manager of the Milwaukee Brewers led to his current role working on diversity initiatives for Major League Baseball.
Tyrone shares memories from many stops on his career journey and how he’s working to provide opportunities for others both in both his full-time role as well as through the wildly popular group he created, the Baseball Industry Network.
