About your baseball coach
I've been around the game for 25 years, including playing in college. Plus, working with the Colorado Rockies, I've got connections to MLB players—I might have even met and worked with your kid's favorite player! Baseball is my passion, and I'm excited to share that love and knowledge with young players."
