Had to find this and share the excitement Jake had when Kim Ng was hired as the first woman GM. Now he gets to play under her, what a full circle moment🫶🏼
Ever since my sister (
@burger_ellie
) was little she wanted to work in baseball and eventually become a GM. It almost seemed impossible to her until this hire was made. I know Kim Ng has inspired my sister today and will continue to inspire her throughout her career.
Let me just say, two of the biggest things I’ll miss are running into
@jasonbenetti
in the team hotel and the tunnel and hearing
@ChuckGarfien
talk about his OG relationship w JB. Gonna miss our Chicago people!
This series in STL means just a little bit more to the Burger family. It’s so special getting to watch JB play against our hometown team, in the stadium our parents took us to as kids. These next few days are going to be so, so memorable ❤️
I’ll always have this memory of meeting
@burger_ellie
and confirming the Burgers are all so loveable 🥺 we’ll miss you guys lots 😭😭 will always root for ya
@Burgatron13
Look what popped up in my photos memories from 6 years ago. Jake’s media day after the draft and the start of a wonderful series of interviews between him and
@ChuckGarfien

Former Bear Ellie Burger is the youngest current head coach at MSU, and says
@MSUBearBaseball
coach Keith Guttin has been a great mentor for her. Guttin has been coaching at MSU for 40 years and even coached her brother Jake Burger.

John Cook has been the head volleyball coach at Nebraska for 23 years.
He has won 4 national titles, made 22 NCAA Regionals, and won 650+ matches.
Yet, he’s probably never done the Tunnel Walk.
And the smile on his face shows how special tonight is.

WIN!!!!
MSU advances with an impressive 4-1 win over Valparaiso.
The Bears will be back in action tomorrow at 2 p.m. as they face Stony Brook in the semifinals.
Gavin Sheets and Jake Burger (The Shurgers) joke that they are brothers. Jake calls Gavin his younger brother since he was born 13 days before him. Gavin isn't a fan of this. 😂
Thank you so much

for doing this story - Missouri State means so much to our family. The student-athletes get all the credit, we’ve got a special group of girls!
“It would be so easy to have some jealousy that she’s not getting the attention, even though she’s doing great things too. So I think that really says a lot about her character..."
See how Ellie Burger is blazing her own trail for Missouri State te
After 40 seasons with MSU, Keith Guttin's family, coaches and former players talk about the longtime Missouri State baseball coach's impact on Springfield and the university.
