What up everybody! This is one of those feel good stories for sure. Rick and I dive deep into the baseball career of Zack Granite. Zack grew up on Staten Island and was a die hard Yankee Fan from birth. He even has a family dog named "Jeter." He started his baseball career right on the block playing at the neighborhood park. It was there that Zack developed hitting the ball up the middle. He enjoyed a successful high school career at Tottenville in Staten Island. He grew up in a baseball household where his brother won a City title at said high school years prior. After high school, Zack took his talents across the bridge to Seton Hall University. At Seton Hall, Zack started every game as a freshman and had an immediate impact, helping his team upset UConn and St. John's en route to a Big East Championship. He takes a lot of pride in his hometown and his college. As a sophomore and junior, Zack continued to turn heads of scouts. In 2013, Zack was drafted by the Minnesota Twins. He quickly progressed through their farm system and earned his big league debut in 2017. I will leave the rest of his career for your listening pleasure. Enjoy the show as we talk growing up on Staten Island, playing for Seton Hall and his trip through professional baseball which all roads lead home...in this case back to NYC and the New York Yankees. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thebrothersbrandt/support
