Interview with Italian pitcher Sam Aldegheri 🇮🇹 ⚾️

Here is my interview with Italian left-handed pitcher and Philadelphia Phillies prospect, Sam Aldegheri, that was recorded for a recent broadcast pregame show.

I was thrilled to meet Sam and get to know him, because he has a great story and I've been following his career for a while. I'm Italian on both sides of my family and it's so awesome seeing Sam represent Italy as he works toward his dream of pitching in Major League Baseball.

Sam and I crossed paths because I'm broadcasting for the Aberdeen IronBirds and Sam is pitching for the Jersey Shore BlueClaws in the High-A South Atlantic League. We talked about his family, his brother's influence on his baseball career, how he learned English, his favorite foods, and more in the interview.

Thank you to Sam for taking time for the interview and to the BlueClaws for connecting us.
