Anthony Iapoce, the hitting coach of the Texas Rangers, will be hosting the inaugural New York Baseball Coaches Clinic on Dec. 10, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. at Division Avenue H.S., Levittown, L.I. Iapoce began his athletic career at St. Joseph’s parish, Astoria, before moving on to Msgr. McClancy H.S., East Elmhurst. He played nine seasons in the minor leagues and just completed his second season as Rangers’ hitting coach.

The clinic is open to coaches, parents and players and features some of the New York area’s top professional and college baseball coaches, including New York Yankees third base coach Joe Espada. Aspects of hitting, pitching, fielding, catching, base running and the mental side of the game will be taught.
