Aging Hurler Turns to Tai Chi to Revitalize Career
Tuesday, November 25th, 2025
Ramón Ortega may have found the fountain of youth in martial arts, specifically Tai Chi.

Ortega has had plenty of success, starting in a bunch of games over his career, but the wear and tear of being a major league pitcher has begun to take its toll on the 36 year old's body, a process which Ortega hopes to hinder by practicing the ancient martial art.

"It's a very spiritual process. Lot's of meditation and visualization. I feel better and stronger than I have in years."

And while Ortega may never be an elite pitcher in his later years, with the new daily routine and a positive outlook, he hopes to contribute at a high level for a while longer.
