Part 5 of 5: Tyler answers fan questions

KUCI: I’m gonna take you a few years back. What was going on in your life professionally at the time that the role [in Teen Wolf] came up?

Tyler: Uhm… What did happen? Well, I had just recently - I hate saying “retired from baseball” - 

KUCI: I need to ask you about that too. Because I wanted to ask you in one of my questions. How hard was it for you to make that decision to retire from baseball?

Tyler: Oh my god. Do we want to go back to that?

KUCI: Absolutely, let’s do it.

Tyler: So, retired from baseball. Uhm— that was… I’m trying to think how many times, I can’t count… a couple of times, I literally was sitting in my car after practice kind of shutting down, that I was just like crying in the front seat of my car, trying to hide it from like any of the other guys of the team walking by after practice. It was like the most miserable experience. I can’t even sugarcoat it. It was the hardest thing I ever had to do, to walk away from that.

*We did a funny thing in the beginning. Dylan and I are both huge Friends fans, so in the beginning of the show - I think it was when we shot the pilot, either the pilot or when we were shooting the first season - we had labeled each other all the Friends characters. Posey was Joey. Dylan took Chandler. Colton Haynes who played Jackson, who he is no longer with us sadly, was Ross. And I got Richard, I was Tom Selleck. I was like the cool guy that wanted to hang out with Joey and Chandler.
