More About Coach Tony

I am a retired professional baseball player of 13 seasons. Also the Assistant baseball coach at Eustis High School. In 2017 was inducted into Florida State Univesity Hall of Fame.This is my 11th year playing professional baseball. 4 with the Chicago Cubs and 3 with the Boston Red Sox, 1 with the Minnesota Twins and in 2015 I spent it with 3 affiliates being Philadelphia Phillies, Detroit Tigers and Chicago White Sox. I'm labeled as a utility player playing mainly 2b, SS and OF. I received a collegiate scholarship to attend Florida State. While there my Jr year received accolades in first team All ACC and All American. Was also named ACC player of the year as well as NCAA player of the year! I have worked at a baseball academy a couple years ago in Cherry Hill, NJ. As well as the Hitting Academy based in Tampa, FL.
I love the game and love to teach the game to those who are willing to learn.

High school was 1st team all state as a junior and a senior
Went to Florida State University and played 2B starting freshman-junior year
Jr year at FSU I won 1st team ACC and all-American ACC player of the year and collegiate player of the year
Drafted 3rd round to the Chicago cubs in 2007
Traded to the Red Sox in 2011 playing at the triple A level
Have made minor league all stars 4 times
Have won 2 championships in the minor leagues
Was an American Association All Star

My sessions will all depend on the player and what they are trying to develop on. I teach everything in a progressive way. Rather it be hitting, fielding or even throwing. We will not get to the next step until we master what comes first.

Tony is working with my 10 year old son on hitting and we have results from the beginning. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their approach to hitting the ball!

Coach Tony was amazing with my son!!! You can really tell he loves the sport AND teaching it. After one session my son learned so much and got his confidence up. He is excited for more sessions! I highly recommend Coach Tony! He is a great athlete and great guy!!!

What a great session we had today! I have been playing baseball for 18+ years and within the first 5 minutes I was already learning new techniques to improve my hitting and felt a huge difference by the end of our first session. Coach Tony customized our practice to meet my personal needs of improvement, has a positive and uplifting way of coaching and a vast knowledge of the game that he is happy to share. I would recommend Coach Tony to anyone, at any level, that wants to improve their game!

Coach Tony is an outstanding coach. He put my boy at ease immediately and focused on his hitting. He examined his stance, posture, swing, everything. I would highly recommend Coach Tony in the future.

Amazing coach, great with the kids, and a passion for the game. Very thankful for Tony coaching my kids. We are all excited for the next lesson.

Tony makes a great connection with my son and offers great advice for both on and off the field. My son's coach noticed a difference in batting skills after our first lesson.

My son loved working with coach Tony. He regained his confidence and really enjoys the game again.

Coach Tony was very engaging and patient with my nephew. The coaching session really gave him a lot of confidence.

Coach Tony is great! He really connected with my son and made it fun.
