During MLB spring training in Scottsdale, Brent Rooker of the Oakland Athletics shared his recent golf experience on the Subpar podcast, revealing he shot a 75 but was outdone by teammate Jeff McNeil’s 68. Rooker explained that players typically aim for 45-50 at-bats over 30 games, allowing for flexibility in their schedule and the opportunity to play golf in the afternoons. He mentioned he has played about five times since arriving, emphasizing the importance of balancing training with leisure activities. Rooker’s ability to enjoy golf is limited when his family is present, but he takes advantage of free afternoons otherwise.
