I knew the story about Winfield getting
drafted by 4 pro leagues. But I wasn't aware of just how good he was in college. Didn't know he was a pitcher. Didn't know he was on the Big 10 champions in basketball. Didn't know he went to the CWS. Since he played hockey as a kid, you wonder if there were more people of color in the NHL if he would have played longer on the ice.
I will say I think he is an example of how making teens specialize in one sport is to their detriment.
