THIS IS THE SPORTS SPECTRUM PODCAST
WITH JASON ROMANO, FEATURING ORLANDO HUDSON
Orlando Hudson is a former MLB infielder who played 11 seasons with the Toronto Blue Jays, Arizona Diamondbacks, Los Angeles Dodgers, Minnesota Twins, San Diego Padres and Chicago White Sox. He was a four-time Gold Glove winner (2005-07, ’09) and was named to two All-Star teams with Arizona (’07) and Los Angeles (’09).
He was selected in the 43rd round of the 1997 MLB Draft by Toronto after playing his college ball at Spartanburg Methodist College in South Carolina. He made his MLB debut five years later with Toronto on July 24, 2002. Currently, he’s a player development assistant in baseball operations with the Diamondbacks.
Today on the podcast, we talk to Orlando Hudson about his MLB career, handling success, being lukewarm in his faith, confidence versus cockiness, and living a life of obedience to Christ.
>> Do you know Christ personally? Learn how you can commit your life to Him. <<
On April 13, 2009, Orlando Hudson became the first player in @Dodgers history to hit for the cycle in 39 years, in an 11-1 rout of the Giants in the home opener at Dodger Stadium.
