You knew Kevin Pillar the baseball player. Here’s your opportunity to be introduced to the person!

Ahead of our 35th Annual Sports Dinner fundraiser, featured guest speaker and former Blue Jays star Kevin Pillar joins The Schmooze Podcast for a conversation that starts with baseball… and ends somewhere much deeper.

Known in Toronto as "Superman" for his fearless catches and relentless style of play, Kevin reflects on the pressure of professional sports, redefining success through failure, growing up Jewish, navigating identity after October 7, and what life looks like after baseball.

They also discuss:
⚾ The mindset required to survive in Major League Baseball.
⚾ Why the best hitters fail 70% of the time.
⚾ Team Israel and the Olympics.
⚾ Family, fatherhood, and perspective.
⚾ How athletes carry expectations from fans, media, and themselves.

Want to see Kevin Pillar in person? Then join us on Thursday, May 28! Email us now at [email protected] to purchase your tickets.
