Listen to Renato Núñez recount the decade he’s spent in professional baseball, and there’s something that comes up at every spot: learning.
If he weren’t playing baseball — which for him is a complete hypothetical, considering he began to get noticed before he was a teenager — he said he might have pursued medicine or engineering like many of his family members at home in Venezuela
As it is, his own higher education has come at the ballpark, where after his first major league season Núñez dove back into his at-bats to try and, again, learn how to steady his production for the Orioles and take himself to the next level.
