HS: I really enjoy seeing them all succeed in their own life's pursuit. Also watching them grow into wonderful ath- letic trainers is a point of personal satisfaction. When they do extraordinarily well at their job, I feel that I have been able to influence them with my love of the profession and the game of baseball or other endeavors (whether it's in baseball or the business world.) TOT: Without giving away a "secret recipe", what is one trick from the field that you have continued to use over the years? HS: One of my favorite tricks is the quarter coin for hand blisters. This has always been a staple for me, especially during the hard days of Spring Training. It really comes in handy and enables the players to continue to partici- pate in hitting drills and batting practice.

  • Moneyball' Bit Player Korach Likes Film
    A’s News Clips, Tuesday, October 11, 2011 'Moneyball' bit player Korach likes film ... and Howe Ron Kantowski, Las Vegas Review Ken Korach's voice can be heard for about 22 seconds in the hit baseball movie "Moneyball," now showing at a theater near you. That's probably not enough to warrant an Oscar nomination, given Anthony Quinn holds the record for shortest amount of time spent on screen as a Best Supporting Actor of eight minutes, as painter Paul Gaugin in 1956's "Lust for Life." But whereas Brad Pitt only stars in "Moneyball," longtime Las Vegas resident Korach lived the 2002 season as play-by- play broadcaster for the Oakland Athletics, who set an American League record by winning 20 consecutive games. And though Korach's 45-minute interview about that season wound up on the cutting-room floor -- apparently along with photographs of the real Art Howe, the former A's manager who was nowhere near as rotund (or cantankerous) as Philip Seymour Hoffman made him out to be in the movie -- Korach said director Bennett Miller and the Hollywood people got it right. Except, perhaps, for the part about Art Howe. "I wish they had done a more flattering portrayal of Art ... but it's Hollywood," Korach said of "Moneyball," based on author Michael Lewis' 2003 book of the same name. "They wanted to show conflict between Billy and Art." Billy is Billy Beane, who was general manager of the Athletics then and still is today. Beane is credited with adapting the so-called "Moneyball" approach -- finding value in players based on sabermetric statistical data and analysis, rather than traditional scouting values such as hitting home runs and stealing bases -- to building a ballclub.

Corpus Christi went 67-71 last season, and despite winning nine of its final 10 games, lost the tiebreaker with Midland for a “wild card” postseason berth. It marked just the second time in the past six seasons the Hooks missed the playoffs. Corpus Christi boasts a new staff in manger Omar Lopez, hitting coach Troy Snitker, pitching coach Bill Murphy, development coach Mycal Jones, athletic trainer John Gregorich, and strength coach Rachel Balkovec. Closer Riley Ferrell and starters Akeem Bostick, Framber Valdez, Josh James, Brock Dykxhoorn, and Yoanys Quiala headline a group of 11 returning pitchers. Catcher Jamie Ritch- ie, infielders Ryne Birk, Arturo Michelena, and Nick Tanielu all have Double-A experience. Outfielder Myles Straw, a 2017 Midwest League Postseason All-Star, returns to the Hooks after finishing last year in the Texas League. Yordan Alvarez, rated by MLB.com as Houston’s No. 4 prospect, is slated to make his Double-A debut tonight. Stephen Wrenn and Carmen Benedetti fill out the outfield corps.
