Darren Dreifort brings stories of being Dodger lifer, a College Baseball Hall of Famer and a professional Dad to this episode of The Approach Shot

from The Approach Shot · host Bleav + Those Weekend Golf Guys

Being a professional baseball player means the world to Dodgers pitcher Darren Dreifort. It's given him a life that he and his family are grateful for every day. But being a professional dad and a loving husband? That gives DD the kind of joy that only a father of 4 and a happy husband can experience. Sure, closing games at Dodger Stadium, and pitching over 175 innings three consecutive years with double digit win totals is thrilling and rewarding. But, balancing home life and professional life is what keeps the smile on Darren's face, and the humor in his soul. And he is FUNNY! I mean, "laugh out loud A LOT" kind of funny. So, if you enjoy laughing, hearing great stories, hearing about family and contentment (and who doesn't want to hear that these days?), this episode of The Approach Shot will give you ALL the feels!
