BLACKSBURG – Former Virginia Tech baseball player and current Pittsburgh Pirate minor league manager Wyatt Toregas was the featured guest at the Hokies’ ninth annual Baseball Night in Blacksburg, held Saturday evening, Feb. 6, in the West Side Stadium Club of Lane Stadium, and his speech and Q&A session was a hit with the crowd.
Toregas, who last played baseball at Tech in 2004 and was drafted by the Cleveland Indians after his junior season, recalled stories about playing for Coach Chuck Hartman, who was in attendance, and talked about his best friends to this day, a handful of former teammates, who were also on hand and sitting in the front row.
