Episode 182: Jake Gronsky — Discipline, Sticking Up for Your Work, and Always Having an Apprentice Mindset

Jake Gronsky (middle) is an author and journalist.

By Brendan O’Meara

Jake Gronsky joins me this fine CNFriday to talk about his transition from playing professional baseball in the Minor Leagues to becoming a writer.

It’s good stuff.

He’s the co-author of A Short Season: Faith, Family, and a Boy’s Love of Baseball.

Jake made the notable selections for Best American Sports Writing 2019 with his two-part feature titled Nine Days in Cape Cod.

We dig into lots of good stuff and the craft of writing, about getting out of the way of the story and always having that apprentice mindset.
