What does it really take to build a championship‑caliber baseball culture when your budget is small, your winters are long, and your home field is basically a second full‑time job? In Episode 6, Jeff welcomes Douglas High School head coach and Tucker Talks Turf founder Jim Tucker to unpack the grind behind grassroots baseball. From DIY nail drags and snow‑covered infields to creative team stores and cross‑country tournaments, Jim shares how his program uses field care, fundraising, and everyday habits to shape better ballplayers—and better men.
