is about to board a plane for Goodyear, AZ. With pride and gratitude, our family would like to announce Zac has agreed to a free agent offer from the

Wishing
@Fascia15
safe travels. Off to Spring Training with
@CleGuardians
org. It was so great to have him home. But, no more hard water fishing for him until next winter. On to sun and ball in AZ. Go get kid.
Thrill of a lifetime moments ago as we were invited on a Zoom call by the
@Indians
organization to be a part of
@Fascia15
official signing. Thank you to the Indians/Guardians for inviting our whole family to experience this special occasion. Let's go!!!!
Allow me to be blunt. Anyone who complains about receiving an Amber Alert should have cell phone privileges revoked. May you never be in a position to need an Amber Alert.
Our communications bureau is receiving numerous calls to 9-1-1, complaining about the late hour of the Amber Alert. As a direct result of someone receiving the alert, we were able to locate the suspect & his vehicle. The system works. Thank you to all those that called with tips.

25yr old (C) prospect Zac Fascia homers in his 1st Triple-A game for Columbus a solo shot in the 6th inning that came off the bat at 101.1 mph! For Fascia it was his 4th HR overall on the 2024 season.

OK, proud Papa moment.
@AlexanderFascia
had a career yesterday in both ends of a DH with
@SWCC_Baseball
He went 5-5 (two of which were doubles), with 2BB's and 4 RBI. As a coach, I loved seeing him using the whole field.
Apologies for the shameless family plug. Happy Easter!
This is a tough one.
@BMBaseballinc
was stabbed in the heart today when we learned of the passing of Cheryl Labrador. To many I am the face of BMBI. But, Cheryl was the glue. She kept us all in line and engaged. To Jeremy and the kids we offer our deepest sympathies. RIP Cheryl
Honoured to be elected on to the

We are extremely proud of the man

Fun dinner last night at Magnum's in Brampton to celebrate

Huge shout to my wife

for this incredibly thoughtful and cool Birthday gift. In February while in Minnesota watching

I know
@Fascia15
would never send this tweet, but I also know we had a lot of people watching the draft to see if he'd be selected. As a family we put a price on the value of a Purdue education. Zac received 2 offers from 2 different mlb teams, one as early as the 7th round.
#Guardians
24yr old (C) prospect Zac Fascia reached base 3x tonight (1-2 R HR 2RBI 2BB) including his 1st career HR a 2-run blast in the 2nd inning for (Low-A) Lynchburg vs Delmarva.
@Fascia15

Great day today.
@DFascia97
told by Princess Margaret Hospital he only has to come in for annual checkups and he can do them with our family doctor. Way to go Daws!!!!
I can't tell you how proud of this kid I am. As a coach, I'm proud of all my players because they've chosen our program and are committed to it. But, what Alex has achieved over the last two years is a remarkable transformation that started with him.

Last day in AZ with

Where to begin? I really don't know how to properly honour these guys
@Royals_2001
9 of them have been with the program since I took over in the 2017 season. All of them bought in regardless of when they joined us. They played their last game as a group last night. Family

All good things must come to an end. Very proud of our

Happy Birthday to this guy

Just a beautiful day. Don't remember the last time I hit fly balls and long tossed with all three of my boys.

Feeling pretty fortunate.
Had to share this. FB friend from high school grew up on the same street with my wife. She gets nostalgic yesterday and tags many of our high school friends with great memories and photos. She tags me in this one. That was the Brampton Twins Senior Baseball Club.
Just got back from picking up some groceries at Metro. Would love to tag them, but couldn't find a Twitter handle. Young man meets me at the door, directs me to hand sanitizer and ask if I need a cart. When I say yes, he wipes it down with disinfectant before passing it over. 👍
Coach Matlock of
@UTRGVBaseball
just presented one of the most entertaining sessions at an
@ABCA1945
that I have ever seen. He wants his players to practice like their hair is on fire and that's how he presented. Practice accountability. Spectacular!!!

Zach Fascia-Purdue-Big 10– Fascia, a left-handed hitting catcher from Brampton, Ontario, caught 57 games as a frosh hitting .277 with 10 doubles & 2 HR. Fascia earned
@ICCACSports
Defensive Player of the year. Fascia also closed for the Falcons making 12 appearances.
The offers did not meet the standard that our family set. Therefore, Zac is going back to
@PurdueBaseball
for his Senior year. We look forward to continuing to foster our relationships with our Purdue families.
Congratulations to Zach Fascia (

Arrived in Chicago last night, where it all started for me more than 10 years ago. Had the obligatory deep dish pizza after arrival and registered this morning. Ready to rejuvenate and learn.

Filled with pride earlier this evening. Dropped in at Teramoto to make sure all was going well with

player from the Humber team came over to say hi and we talked baseball as a group.

Not one other school has acknowledged the follow up email. If I see any of those programs complaining about recruits not communicating or acknowledging them, I will take them to task. Everyone deserves an acknowledgement, even if it's an automatic reply.
Sport in general is a small community. Baseball is no exception. Meet Glen Teramoto, York River Dogs. Last name should be familiar to anyone 15U and older that has played in Brampton. Teramoto Park was named after his family. How cool is that.
