1. How a last minute decision led to playing at Xavier University on scholarship
2.Why he decided to start his own business as a hitting coach versus continuing to coach in the traditional team environment
3. Patrick’s thoughts for anyone who is wondering where to start when they know where they want to get to but aren’t sure how to begin
4. The power of social media within coaching and how he’s leveraged it in getting his podcast to over 100 episodes that includes current and former big leaguers, coaches, front office executives and others
Patrick’s journey shows how baseball and business can be brought together as a coach. There’s many paths to success beyond playing and is a great example for those wanting to stay directly tied to the game to hear from.
