Getting to Know Matt Goldenbaum
- What is your favorite food? Steak
- Who is your favorite MLB team? Philadelphia Phillies
- Who was your favorite athlete growing up? Kobe Bryant
- Where did you first fall in love with baseball, and who put the first glove in your hand? My dad put the first glove in my hand and I fell in love with baseball when I was about five years old. I remember going to my older brother’s practices and wanted to be just like him because he was someone that I looked up to for the longest time.
- Who is the GOAT of baseball? Pedro Martinez
- What’s your favorite restaurant in Omaha? Committee Chophouse
- If you didn’t play baseball, what other sport would you have played? Wrestling
- What’s your earliest baseball memory that still sticks with you today? When I was five, in my first tee ball game, I picked up third base and ran home with it. There’s a video that still circulates in family group chats of me stealing my first base.Â
- What’s a hobby or talent you have that people wouldn’t expect from a baseball player? I used to wrestle and do Jiu Jitsu growing up. I stopped sophomore year of high school to focus on baseball, but it is something I definitely miss doing. I also enjoy making heated wood carvings with designs on them.
