Hello and welcome to episode five of the Baseball Backroads podcast.  Thanks to everyone who listened in to episode four and welcome to listeners from Canada, Sweden, and the Czech Republic, who just hosted the European Championships and from everything I could see did a phenomenal job.  Ostrava was one of the host sites, which is where I played in 2011.  Tracking it all on social media, it looked like they really created an amazing atmosphere for the event.  So, congratulations to the Ostrava Arrows organization and all of Czech baseball for hosting what I’m sure was an awesome European championship.  

As always if you enjoy the podcast please leave us a rating and review if you have a minute.  I’m told this helps make the podcast more discoverable to others.  You can also subscribe to the podcast and follow us on instagram @baseballbackroads.  

Today’s guest is Kathy Saso.  Kathy was an English as a New Language teacher for the Houston Astros A ball affiliate, the Tri City ValleyCats.  The ValleyCats are now a Frontier League team after some of the post-covid reorganization.  But, Kathy taught several player who went on to great success with the Astros including winning a couple World Series.  Kathy has an awesome story to tell about her experience teaching in professional baseball and her passion for teaching her students is readily apparent in our chat, so I hope you enjoy my conversation with Kathy Saso on the backroads.
