Ed Herrmann’s Summary
I have a long standing career in baseball beginning with the Milwaukee Braves as an 17 year old. I continued my Major League Baseball Career as a catcher with the Chicago White Sox staying with them for 6 years and continuing with the New York Yankees, the Los Angeles Angels, the Houston Astros and the Montreal Expos for a total of 14 years.
I've worked in many capacities in baseball including a tutor, scout, coach, and a manager of youth teams ranging in age from 13 thru college. Of these travel teams, I coached 4 national championships. Many of the players I have tutored or coached, have gone on to have successful careers in Professional baseball or used their talents to receive college scholarships.
