A sum of our parts. A true testament to the work of numerous front office members, our team of interns, my 2 assistants & especially the 47 players who comprised the roster throughout the summer. Special thanks to them & honored by this recognition! #DogsStillHot 🌭 #SkoDogs 🛩

I never thought I'd write a book. For years, people kept asking me to co-author something. That sounded perfect. All I had to do was sit on a porch, tell some stories, and let a real writer do all the work. My friend Jon Gordon had other plans. After reading my co-authored manuscript, he looked me straight in the eye and said, "Clint, you need to write your own book." "I'm not a writer, Jon." "You're afraid to write your own book." Well, that did it. The 12-year-old in me showed up real quick. "I'm not afraid of anything." Nine months later, "Hurdle-isms" was born. Those nine months were brutal. There were days I hated writing. Days I wanted to quit. Days I stared at a blank page for hours. But something magical happened in that struggle. Pulling out old journals from Colorado and Pittsburgh. Remembering conversations with players who changed my life as much as I changed theirs. Here's what I learned writing my book: Growth isn't comfortable. It's not supposed to be. The best things that have happened in my life came from doing things I didn't think I could do.

100% Committed! I’d like to thank everyone who has been there for me through this process. I also want to thank Coach Mead and Walsh for giving me an opportunity to further my playing career.

One of the most impressive home runs you'll ever see

Dillon Dingler led all AL catchers in home runs and RBI in his breakout season!
