In a previous article I included a brief sketch of Pedro Monterowho was promoted to the Tulsa Drillers for the 2019 season serving as theDrillers bench coach. As mentioned, Montero is a high energy, excitable youngman who has an infectious effect on the players he coaches. In fact, with anyyoung players with whom he makes contact. It is difficult to see him without asmile on his face.
Known as, “Petie”, he had a very brief baseball career as aninfielder- primarily at shortstop – playing two seasons in an independentleague. In 2008 he played for the Long Beach Armada and in 2009 for theVictoria Seals.
