Tommy was once asked what it's like to grow up playing baseball in Florida and his answer was this, " We play baseball to become professional baseball players-to make it to The League. You've got former first round prospects giving hitting lessons on every corner. Petaluma is such a small town compared to South Florida. I was definitely surprised at how many really good baseball players continue to come out of this small community.
