Get to Know Robbie ...
At what age did you start playing baseball and how did you get into baseball?
- I started playing at 4. I got into it because of my dad and they had to put me in tee ball in the next town over because I was too young to play in my own town.
- Water Polo, because it was the only other sport I played in high school.
- I write country music with my dad.
- I would say my mom. She is a wonderful example of how to live, work and love others.
- I try to model my mechanics after Ohtani and Roki Sasaki.
