Join us for S2:EP29 of the Sports Philanthropy Podcast as Jeremy Wolf of More Than Baseball sits down with our host, Roy Kessel, to discuss how his minor league baseball experiences led him to launch More Than Baseball.
Jeremy is a former minor league baseball player with the New York Mets and a member of the Israeli Olympic baseball team.
