Show by The Ryles Report
In this special episode of The Ryles Report, we flew out to California to sit down with my lifelong mentor — Dusty Baker, World Series–winning manager, three-time Manager of the Year, All-Star outfielder, and future Hall of Famer.Dusty takes us through his remarkable journey in baseball: from playing alongside Hank Aaron and other legends, to navigating life as a Black MLB player in the Jim Crow South, to his decades-long career as one of the most respected managers in the game.We also dive into the current state of Major League Baseball, the lessons Dusty has learned on and off the field, and what it truly means to break barriers in America’s pastime.This is more than just a conversation about baseball — it’s a powerful look at history, resilience, and leadership.
