We’re almost 2 years removed from Rich Hill loudly grunting on the mound for the Dodgers. After being traded to Los Angeles by the A’s in 2016, Hill instantly became a fan favorite at Chavez Ravine. His loud grunting, approach at the plate and overall candor spoke to fans in a way that I haven’t seen in a long time.
The comeback story of Rich Hill is one that everyone in baseball should hear at some point. From bouncing around in the big leagues to pitching in the Atlantic League, and then back to Major League Baseball, Hill’s story is one of resistance.
