2025 season in The ‘Deen ⚾️🎙️✅

Thank you to everyone who tuned in, followed along, and supported me again this year.

The IronBirds gave me my first shot to be a lead broadcaster in minor league baseball back in August 2022, and after 3+ years as the voice of the team, I’m moving on.

Aberdeen is where I learned that using my voice as a broadcaster means more than just calling a game…it’s about bringing the human element of the game to life by telling stories that you can’t find from a Google search, showcasing who players are as people and not just as athletes, talking about important topics like mental health and battling adversity, connecting with my audience on a personal level, and paying it forward to aspiring broadcasters like I once was.

Thank you to my family for consistently believing in me and my talent, when I’m riding my highest highs and most importantly when I need the extra encouragement to fight through tough days.

I don’t know where my next opportunity will be, but I’m excited to find out.

- Iron Mike ✈️💪
