Leiter Talks About Charity, Baseball, Pitching & More

One of the highlights of this past weekend’s 6^th Annual Strike Out Autism Challenge” was the return of Al Leiter to the baseball field that made him famous. The longtime Major League pitcher led Central to the NJSIAA Group 3 title during his senior season in 1984, a season which saw him gain national headlines following a 13-inning, 32 strikeout performance against Wall. 

Leiter pitched 19 seasons for the Yankees, Blue Jays, Marlins and Mets and was a two-time All-Star and three-time World Series champion. He is currently an analyst for the YES Network and a studio analyst for the MLB Network. The Berkeley Township native spoke with our Vin Ebenau on Saturday about a variety of subjects from his playing days at Central, to giving back, and to getting the most out of your talent.:
