'I'll definitely cherish the family experiences,' Snitker said as he reflected on the 2021 World Series, where the Astros battled the team managed by his father, the Atlanta Braves.
Players, especially coaches, will tell you: There's nothing easy about winning the World Series. But for one coach, 2022's Fall Classic is a much simpler series than a year ago."It's definitely going to be easier to enjoy the games and kind of take it all in," Troy Snitker, Houston Astros hitting coach, admitted. "A little more so than last year.
"I'll definitely cherish what we did last year and the family experiences we got to have," Snitker said about the 2021 World Series. "But obviously, there was a lot of added enjoyment - and also a lot of added anxiety and stress from that situation." That situation ended with the Braves beating the Astros in six games to win the World Series at Minute Maid Park.
