The Long Game is for competitive baseball players who want to increase their odds of making it — and build the discipline to sustain success when they do. Hosted by former professional baseball player Cameron Garfield, this show explores what actually separates players who last: identity beyond performance, daily discipline, handling pressure, environment, and preparation for life after the game. Through honest conversations with MLB players, scouts, coaches, and solo insights, The Long Game focuses on what doesn’t show up on a stat sheet — habits, character, and decision-making.

His teams captured 100 wins in six different seasons.
