About this episode

Skyler Stromsmoe shares his journey from farming to playing baseball, including his time with the San Francisco Giants and representing Canada internationally.

Growing up on the farm, it can sometimes be tough to find enough time in the day to play baseball in the summer. You have animals or crops to take care of, farmyards to maintain, and there’s never an end to the oddball jobs you can find. But when you love it, you find the time. Such was the case with Skyler Stromsmoe. Born and raised on the family farm just outside Etzikom in southeast Alberta, he was willing to do anything to play the game he loved. We sit down for a great conversation about his days in the San Francisco Giants organization, representing Canada on the international stage, and what he’s up to today back on the farm.
