A junior from San Diego, Casey Munoz ( CM), has been a strong first base asset to the men's baseball squad. SantaClaraBroncos.com ( SCB) sat down with Munoz to discuss when he began to play as well as some of his training regimens.
SCB: Growing up, what positions did you play?
CM: I always played first base growing up because I was too chubby to play any of the other positions. Now I would love to be a pitcher, but I like hitting way too much.
SCB: If you could play in any ballpark in the country, which one would it be?
CM: I would love to play in Dodger Stadium. I played there in high school and since I am a Dodger fan, it was one of the coolest experiences of my life.
