About this episode
We sit down with Pirates pitching prospect David Matoma, one of the most intriguing young arms in the system and a player with the chance to become the first Ugandan-born Major Leaguer. Matoma opens up about his journey from Uganda to professional baseball, the challenges and pride that come with representing his home country, and the development path that has turned him into one of the Pirates’ most electric talents. We dive into his growth on and off the mound, the adjustments he’s made since entering the organization, and the mindset driving him as he gets closer to Pittsburgh. A powerful and inspiring conversation you won’t want to miss.
