With 162 regular season (non-corona) games, MLB has the most games per season, per team, than any other professional sport in the USA. The ability to deal with wins and losses throughout the long season requires mental support, usually driven by team leaders.
Leadership, whether we are talking business leadership or leadership in sports, all have four key attributes:
- Willingness to serve others
- Going the extra mile

Their teammates follow them on and off the field at a much higher level than we are accustomed to seeing. Greatness is a byproduct of a professional baseball player’s physical ability and ability to show not only leadership in sports but in all facets of life.
