Sam Claycamp’s baseball career seemed as though it was over… until a lost job during the pandemic turned into a passion for the sport rediscovered! Sam has been travelling all over the country playing independent ball of late and J-Rob caught up with him just as he was preparing to break camp with the Lexington Legends of the Atlantic League this season! The two talked about pretty much everything, including:
· Growing up as a ballplayer in Indiana and rooting for the early 2000s Reds
· The Little League World Series and how close Sam came to making it!
· Looking back on his own words about his work ethic in high school
· The Franklin Grizzlies and what makes them such an amazing D3 squad
· The debut of Rapid Fire!
· Self-Trivia, of course
· Fantasy Draft of 21st Century Utility Players
· Goals for this season and Sam’s career as a whole
· And of course, Sam wrote his LL2B!
This was a heck of an episode, if we do say so ourselves! Follow @ll2baseball on Instagram for more content from the show and the same on Twitter for all things baseball related!
