SEATTLE - Jan. 4, 2021 - Sports media platform UNRIVALED has launched its newest Inside The Jersey profile featuring Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Alec Mills.
UNRIVALED's mission is to balance the sports media scales by focusing on likable athletes and positive sports stories that aren't usually reported.
The Alec Mills feature is UNRIVALED's latest Inside The Jersey athlete profile, which consists of an in-depth podcast and blog Q&A about the athlete's life both on and off the field. This is the 9th Inside The Jersey segment, following NFL players James Smith-Williams, Kamu Grugier-Hill, C.J. Ham and Jonotthan Harrison, MLB players Brad Keller, Lance McCullers Jr. and Taylor Hearn, and WNBA player Lauren Cox. The new Inside The Jersey profile will appear on their website, www.unrivaled-sports.com, today.
The Inside The Jersey profile on Mills is a behind-the-scenes look at Alec's persistence to achieve a career in Major League Baseball, his experience throwing the Chicago Cubs 16th no-hitter in franchise history and why his community work is more important to him now as a new father.
"We are excited to share our story on Alec Mills. He's an exceptional young pitcher and family man," UNRIVALED Co-Founder Steve Schwartz said. "Alec shares some really compelling insights that we haven't seen him discuss anywhere else, including the story of why he purchased the Oris Roberto Clemente Limited Edition watches to commemorate his no-hitter. Alec has been an underdog his whole baseball career, but his endless positivity and competitiveness has given him the ability to succeed in life from a college baseball walk-on to a first-time dad."
"We believe sports fans all around the country will truly love this episode and they'll root for Alec next time they see him pitch."
All Inside The Jersey episodes are promoted on social media for fans to enjoy. UNRIVALED can be found on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn and YouTube, as well as all major podcast platforms.
The next "Inside The Jersey" profile is scheduled to premiere in the coming weeks.
