In this conversation with Cincinnati Reds Catcher Tyler Stephenson, he talks about what his parents mean to him and how they impacted his youth sports journey, how he wants to be remembered as a person, the day he got called up to the show, advice he would give to athletes aged 10-16, and the homerun he hit in his first at-bat in the big leagues.

Tyler is from Atlanta, GA and was the 11th overall pick in the 2015 MLB Draft by the Cincinnati Reds. He grew up playing youth baseball at the baseball empire East Cobb and he attended Kennesaw Mountain High School. As one of baseball's top young prospects, Tyler offers insightful advice about what players in the youth sports arena should be doing to better themselves, not just as players, but as human beings as well.
