Kaplan Coaching isn't usually the place you go for sharpening your curve ball, hitting opposite-field home runs or covering second on a double play. But when it comes to Head Baseball Coach at Lesley University Seth Kaplan , that's exactly what you get. An elementary school friend of Josh's, Coach Kaplan has been the consummate field general. Not only was he showing 5'3 Josh how to play defense in childhood pickup basketball games, he also played Varsity Short Stop and Catcher in High School. But despite doing the same at UMass he knew he wasn't going to ever play for the NY Yankees, but maybe he could coach them (still his dream). When a chance opportunity to steal a coaching job at the collegiate level opened up, he dug in - from the dug out - and has since moved all around the New England area coaching players of all skill levels, even some Major League hopefuls. Listen in to hear Coach Kaplan's philosophy on baseball and how it applies to life, career, and growing up with Josh's terrible jokes.
