Episode Details

Bob Henley, a 34-year MLB veteran who spent his entire career with the Expos and Nationals, has traded his familiar uniform for San Diego’s third-base coach role — a move that brings him into the heart of the action, where split-second decisions shape games. Once drafted as a catcher and sidelined by injury, Henley pivoted to coaching in 2003, rising through the minors before joining the Nationals’ big league staff in 2014. Now, he balances aggressive baserunning with player safety, guided by a philosophy rooted in hard work and long-term care — values forged on his family’s farm. With MLB’s new rule forcing coaches to stay in their boxes, Henley embraces the challenge, even jokingly appearing in an official photo, while staying focused on one goal: helping his team win it all.
