Royals minor-league pitcher Jacob Condra-Bogan has a routine.
He pulls himself off the mattress that lays on the living room floor of a three-bedroom home he shares with four Lexington Legends teammates, prepares himself for a workday at the ballpark of the Royals’ low-Class A affiliate and makes time for schoolwork. Sometimes it’s before games, other times late at night. Bus rides, too; he can get plenty of work done on those if the wireless internet cooperates.
He’s two online classes away from graduating Georgia Southern with a master’s degree in sports management. July is the target date.
