About a month ago, Hayden Shenefield asked a question in a @reddit AMA. This week, because of that question, he was signed by the Cincinnati Reds. At ESPN+, a tale of shooting your shot — and how it authored one of the unlikeliest baseball stories: es.pn/3pnj5gI

Knock on the door long enough, someone will open it. Only the beginning... Ben Brewster Hayden Shenefield

Remember Hayden Shenefield (Hayden Shenefield), the pitcher the Cincinnati Reds signed off @reddit? Well, he's already out and playing. And in his debut for the Daytona Tortugas today, he threw 3.1 shutout and struck out 4. Enjoy the unlikely story at ESPN+: es.pn/3pnj5gI

Chris Paul: “I wasn’t this phenom. I wasn’t necessarily supposed to be here. I played two years of JV basketball. It ain’t always been sweet for me. I’ve always had to grind. I like that mentality. That’s always been who I’ve been, and I'm going to stay that way.” #CP3

after shooting his shot on Reddit, Hayden Shenefield threw 3.1 scoreless IP in his pro debut with the Daytona Tortugas.

ALWAYS shoot your shot, kids.

From a @reddit AMA to the @reds organization — we loved Hayden Shenefield's story so much! Hayden Shenefield made his pro debut for the Daytona Tortugas and @Verly32 wanted to share the former CSUN Baseball pitcher's story. It's amazing! 👏 ⬇️

#Reds Amir Garrett came in with a man on second and third with one out and threw eight straight sliders to retire the side without allowing a run to score. He has thrown 334 pitches this season, of which 180 (53.9%) have been sliders.

Baby update: Theo — Theodore Orel Davis — arrived late last night. Yet to allow a run.

A sign of genius is getting excited at being a beginner again.

Be careful telling people about your goals. It releases dopamine similar to achieving them. Skip the instant gratification. Go quiet and build.

This tweet won’t get the recognition that it deserves, but that’s okay.

IMO there’s a massive difference between training with the goal of just getting better vs training with the goal of getting as good as you possibly can I think just getting better than you are now is pretty easy, but getting as good as you possibly could be is incredibly hard

Hayden Shenefield big part of that State Tile!
