Ultimately, Robby’s career spanned 1998 through 2011 and 14 professional seasons during which he also played a season with both Baltimore and the New York Yankees. During his 6 seasons in the Big Leagues with the Diamondbacks, Robby caught Randy Johnson’s perfect game in 2004 and managed to impress with his versatility, positive attitude and diligent work ethic.

During the off season, he makes his home at It’s All In The Game as the Hitting & Catching Coordinator. Jon Huizinga: Jonathan "Zinger" Huizinga has been pitching in the minor leagues and independent leagues since he graduated from Michigan State University in 2002.

Danny Orr: Danny Orr is our Pitching Coordinator and was drafted by the Oakland A's and pitched in their organization until a shoulder injury took him out of the game.

Orr also spent time with the Chicago White Sox as an associate scout in addition to inventing a patent-pending mental training method for athletes that has undergone two successful scientific research studies conducted at Arizona State University.

    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE BASEBALL WRITERS NEWSLETTER (Volume 41, No. 1, January 30, 2002) Barry on Baseball NCBWA President’s Message by Barry Allen The wait is finally over. The 2002 college baseball season has officially begun. While most of the schools do not open play until Feb. 1, 2002, there are some that have already opened their seasons entering the final week of January. The 2002 college baseball season promises to be one of the most exciting seasons in memory. Can Miami make it three in a row at Rosenblatt Stadium? The defending champs return a number of key players and will play one of the nation's most demanding schedules. How will baseball at Alex Box Stadium differ now that legendary Skip Bertman is no longer in the first base dugout? New Tigers skipper Ray "Smoke" Laval opened practice on Saturday, Jan. 19, and is the favorite to win the SEC in a vote by the league's 12 head coaches. Can Nebraska claim its third straight 50-win season and turn Rosenblatt Stadium into another sea of red at the 2003 College World Series? Will Stanford journey back to America's heartland again this season, boasting another talented team under Mark Marquess? Who will be the eight teams to fight for the 2003 national championship in June? All of these questions will be answered over the course of the next 21 weeks as the college baseball season unfolds. It promises to be an exciting year. Off the field, there is excitement, too. There will be a trip to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum this year as the annual CoSIDA convention will be held in Rochester, N.Y.

  • BULLPEN CHATTER Ups in MLB When He Pitched out of the Bullpen in Baltimore
    BULLPEN CHATTER ups in MLB when he pitched out of the bullpen in Baltimore. “I tell our young prospects to throw the change‐up even harder than the fastball. We long‐toss change‐ups, too, just to build the habit of throwing it harder than the fastball.” He waited for me to look puzzled, then continued with his explanation. “You know what happens with young pitchers when they try to throw too hard? Their fastball loses velocity. Why does it lose velocity? Because they clench up and pitch with a stiff wrist. So I tell them to throw the change‐up with that kind of macho. They learn to put more into it, and the pitch travels slower. They also learn the difference between throwing with a relaxed wrist and a stiff one.” Pete was a southpaw, and he talked about There are truths about pitching that sound how southpaws tend to develop into smarter contradictory. Here are a few… pitchers because, typically, they don’t throw as hard as righties. He mentioned Whitey Ford and • You add power to your pitching motion Warren Spahn – two Hall of Famers that Pete by slowing it down rather than got to know in his playing days – and he speeding it up mentioned Tom Glavine, Francisco Liriano and • You pitch as much with your legs as Jamie Moyer, too, the ageless Phillies’ lefty. with your arm “Moyer’s fastball clocks in the low 80’s and • Throwing hard requires a firm grip and I’ve seen him throw a change‐up as slow as 68 a relaxed wrist mph.” Richert chuckles and shakes his head.

    RODRRODOD DEDEAUXDDEDEAUXEDEAUX ˨˨ THETTHEHE ARCHITECTAARCHITECTRCHITECT OOFOFF UUSCUSCSC BBASEBALLBASEBALLASEBALL On January 5, 2006, the USC baseball program suff ered the loss of Rod Dedeaux, one of the greatest college coaches ever, who passed away at the age of 91. Not only was Dedeaux the main architect for the success of the USC baseball program, but also one of the great ambassadors for college baseball and amateur baseball in international competition. In his 45-year tenure at USC (1942-86), Dedeaux led the Trojans to 11 national championships and 28 conference titles. He posted an overall record of 1,332-571-11 for a superb .699 winning percentage. At his retirement, he had won more games than any other college baseball coach (he currently ranks seventh among Division I coaches). His teams from 1970-74 won fi ve straight NCAA championships, a record that may never be broken. No other school has won more than two in a row. Two personal honors for Dedeaux, which are quite fi tting considering his accomplishments, came in 1999 when he was named “Coach of the Century” by both Baseball America and Collegiate Baseball. As part of the 50th anniversary of the College World Series in 1996, Dedeaux was named the head coach of the All-Time CWS team by a panel of former World Series coaches, media and college baseball offi cials. In 1999, he was presented with keys to the city of Omaha (home to the College World Series). Dedeaux was named Coach of the Year six times by the American Baseball Coaches Association and was inducted into the organization’s Hall of Fame in 1970.
