• Over his career, Sax was selected to five All-Star teams and won two Gold Glove awards for his outstanding defensive play.
• Despite his success on the field, Sax struggled with throwing errors early in his career which earned him the nickname “Steve Sax Syndrome”. However, he overcame this issue through hard work and dedication.
• After retiring from playing, Sax became involved in coaching and broadcasting. He also wrote a book called “Shift: Change Your Mindset and You Change Your World” which focuses on personal growth and self-improvement.
• Coasters are an ideal home décor accent, crafted with attention to detail and quality. Each coaster boasts an authentic card hand-mounted onto the high-quality ceramic tile measuring 4.25 x4.25 inches in size and 0.25 inches thick. The card may not always be the one pictured, as it depends on the current inventory.  However each card is carefully curated by Jake and Dean and the beauty and character is sure to impress! The tiles are then sealed with a bio-based resin for unbeatable protection, while the natural cork backing gives it that finished touch and makes it easy to showcase anywhere.
