The Dominican Republic trip that I took with Trosky baseball still remains the fondest baseball experience of my life. I will never forget waking up at 6:00 am and working out with the Dominicans on the beach. It was also great playing in the small villages and major league complexes against the local teams. It was baseball heaven. This is a trip that every serious baseball player should make. It gives you a greater perspective on your life and teaches you a lot about baseball. I am thankful that Trosky Baseball gave me this wonderful opportunity.

The Presence of Coach Nate Trosky, Throughout my years in high school, I’ve had many teachers and coaches fulfill the role of a leader, many of whom I’m grateful for. Nate Trosky is a coach that I have had the opportunity to work with over the summer, in the Dominican Republic, and will continue to work with throughout this year. He has a craziness that you can’t turn away from and his approach to life and his incredible motivational skills are one of a kind. He has changed my life by challenging me to be better every day, both as an athlete and as a person. To describe him in words does no justice compared to being in his presence and feeling his passion for life and baseball. He makes me realize I can push myself further than I thought was possible. He gives so many examples and stories of kids just like me that now play professional baseball and make millions of dollars following simple steps that encourages his players. Nate Trosky is a true teacher that has forever changed my approach not only to sports but to my eating habits, study habits and all around commitment to anything I choose to do.

My trip to the Dominican Republic with Trosky Baseball was a great experience both on and off the field. The training and baseball was great, and the people were even better. Even though I had always heard about what baseball in the DR was like, it was amazing to get to experience it truly first hand. It was no doubt the highlight of my summer.
