My Take
Bobby Meacham is the kind of baseball lifer I have a soft spot for. A Los Angeles native who spent his entire six-year big-league career as the Yankees' shortstop, he then stayed in the game for decades, managing and coaching across the majors and minors. Holding down shortstop for a franchise like New York demands a steadiness that clearly carried into his teaching career. The path from Mater Dei High to San Diego State to a quiet, durable coaching life reads as deeply unglamorous and deeply admirable. I respect the men who keep the game running long after the spotlight has moved on.
