The Washington Wild Things have added former Youngstown State head coach Rich Pasquale to their coaching staff for the upcoming Frontier League season. He will work primarily with the infielders and outfielders.
Pasquale is a native of Beaver Falls and resides in Zelienople. He has been a scout for the Boston Red Sox and Cleveland Indians, and was an assistant coach at Pitt and Slippery Rock before becoming Youngstown State’s head coach (2008-12).
“We are fortunate to have Rich join our staff,” new Wild Things manager Bart Zeller said. “He has a very impressive-looking resume in baseball and brings the passion and commitment to the game that we are looking for. In addition, he is a local individual who is well-known through the Pittsburgh area as a solid and experienced baseball man.”
The Wild Things open their 12th Frontier League season May 17 at Schaumburg and will host the league’s all-star game July 17.
