More About Coach Phillip
Served as youth league and high school baseball instructor specializing in catching techniques, hitting functionality, and pitching mechanics. I participated in private bullpen work with collegiate, minor league, and major league pitchers during and after my playing days. Certified Crossfit instructor for Crossfit 8808 and my own personal Crossfit Gym called Crossfit Anytime. I have spent countless hours of my life giving and receiving baseball hitting, pitching, and catching lessons. I have worked with amazing instructors and Hall of Fame coaches, along with horrible instructors and very inefficient coaches. I know what works and what doesn't and what an athlete can quickly apply to their skillset to make a very quick/immediate impact in their performance. I love coaching baseball and fitness to kids and young adults of all ages and skill level.
Served as the University of Texas at Austin baseball team bullpen catcher coached under Augie Garrido. I helped develop the #1 pitching rotation and lowest ERA for the 2002 National Championship winning team. Caught multiple Major League and Minor League baseball pitchers including Huston Street, Brad Halsey, JP Howell, and Dennis Cook. I was a varsity letterman at Tom Clark High School 1997-2000 in San Antonio, Texas. Multiple Top 3 local triathlon competitions and Amateur Crossfit competitions.
A session may consist of a mix of hitting techniques, catching skills, pitching mechanics, and throwing drills, depending on the athlete's skill set and desired outcome. I specialize in swing efficiency, catching drills, and pitching movement and physics. My focus is on breaking down catching, pitching, and hitting fundamentals into its simplest form and function. Too many coaches teach unnecessary advanced skills that confuse the athlete. My goal is to take their natural skill and enhance it to what is valuable, practical, and repetitive. Each session will be catered to the athletes strengths and weaknesses, with an emphasis on adding value and quick return on lesson sessions. The athlete must be ready to work, and work hard during each session. However, the effort will pay off in quick advancement of skills. Additional strength and fitness training as needed. Sessions will be held in my air conditioned home gym and at a local baseball field (subject to availability).

Client Reviews
Felipe (CoachUp client)
Coaching style works well for younger kids. Positive feedback and can easily relay information that a 9 yr old boy can understand, retain, and execute. Looking forward to more lessons with Coach Phillip.
Mike (CoachUp client)
Our first session was outstanding, Coach P. knows how to break down the swing of the High School player and improve areas of concern. Our son learned a lot during his first session and looks forward to more instructions in the next few weeks. Coach P was our first ever baseball instructor and we were very impressed.
Luke (CoachUp client)
Phillip does an excellent job. My 4th grader has really grasped everything Phillip has taught. Great one on one lessons. Highly recommend.
Bobby (CoachUp client)
Phillip is great! He communicates well with our son and takes the time to explain specific areas that need to be worked on. Highly recommend him!
