Former MLB player Adam Wainwright discusses his transition from baseball to TV and music, while also juggling family responsibilities.
Days after his playing career ended, Adam Wainwright is dealing with a pressing issue. A cute, fluffy one.that was gifted to Wainwright by the St. Louis Cardinals — his only major league team — is at the center of a running family argument.“Everybody’s fighting on who’s holding him,” Wainwright said. “I’m a little worried he’s not going to learn how to walk here, if we can’t put him on the ground soon.
“I think what I enjoy most about it is just my love for the game of baseball and pitching in general,” Wainwright said. “I love to sit on the bench next to our guys, next to our pitchers, and go ‘Why do you think he threw that pitch?’ or ‘What do you think the hitter’s thinking right now?’ ... I love watching for that and I love talking about it.”
“I never thought I would ever get anything like that, honestly,” Wainwright told The Associated Press. “I thought they’d be like ‘And there’s Adam, too, and he did a great job, you know, whatever he did.’”In addition to Louie, the Cardinals presented Wainwright with an original painting and a custom Les Paul guitar with hand-written letters from his wife and children inscribed on the back. As much as he wants to play the Les Paul, he said it’s likely going into a glass case for protection.
