It has been an eventful few weeks for Texas baseball. Pitching coach Sean Allen was fired the day after the Longhorns season ended, volunteer coach Troy Tulowitzki opted not to return for a 4th season and assistant Philip Miller was recently re-assigned to an off field role. David Pierce took the first step on Thursday in putting his staff together for the 2023 season with the reported hire of Steve Rodriguez as hitting coach.
Rodriguez spent 7 seasons as the head coach at Baylor before resigning this past May following the 2022 season. Prior to his time in Waco, he sent 12 years as the head coach at Pepperdine. Rodriguez was a two time All-American for Pepperdine as a player and was a key part of the 1992 National Championship team. He went on to be drafted by the Boston Red Sox and made his major league debut in 1995.
