I'm pleased to announce that Coach Michael Heathcott will also be providing pitching instruction for our team. This instruction will supplement the development sessions already scheduled with Coach Al Hasan at Junior Diggins.
Coach Heathcott will be working with our pitchers on the evenings of Friday, January 14th and Friday, February 25th at the On-Deck Baseball Academy of Orland Park. As with our other development sessions, pitchers will be assigned a time during the evening for more individualized instruction. Please note that these events have been added to our team's schedule.
Coach Heathcott is a retired Major League Baseball pitcher, with experience with both the White Sox & Cubs organizations. Playing during one season at the major league level for the Chicago White Sox, Coach Heathcott is a Chicago-native who now resides in Scottsdale, Arizona. He was drafted by the White Sox in the 13th round of the 1991 amateur draft. Coach Heathcott played his first professional season with their Class-A (Short Season) Utica Blue Sox in 1991, and his last with the Triple-A affiliates of the Chicago Cubs (Iowa Cubs) and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (Edmonton Trappers) in 2000.
