Full Count with Caden Mitchell

What is your major: Computer science because I enjoy programming.

Who is your baseball hero? I admire Anthony Rizzo because the way he plays the game, and his attitude on and off the field.  Also, I like to watch Adley Rutschman because he played multiple sports and is a great hitting catcher.

Your favourite Major League Team: My favourite team is the Chicago Cubs

Why play baseball and not another sport? Growing up I watched all my cousins and brother play the game and fell in love with it.  I also really like football.

Any family in the game? Not anymore unfortunately.

What drew you to the school you are attending: I’m attending McLennan College because it was a great fit for me and the history of the baseball program.
