From Playing Baseball in the Minors to Teaching Baseball to Youth: The Journey of Chad Rogers

Being a BOI (born on the island) of Galveston, and growing up on the Texas coast, can lead a kid into many different sports. From the traditional sports to the more extreme sports of skateboarding, surfing, or other water sports. But one Galvestonian, Chad Rogers, capitalized on his talent and love of baseball and has turned it into a career in multiple ways. From being drafted out of Galveston College, to six years playing professional baseball, to now opening his own baseball training camp and instruction, Chad has used his passion to his advantage. Though he never played in the Astros system, Chad grew up an Astros fan.
