Isaac Hess Biography

Brief Bio...

My name is Isaac Hess. I have been teaching young pitchers how to better their minds, mechanics, and health for over 6 years. I love to play and teach the game of baseball.

I was born and raised in Phoenix, AZ and I graduated from Shadow Mountain High School in 2003. I attended South Mountain CC, Washington State University, and finished my college education at the University of Arizona with a bachelor's degree in 2007. I am a 27 year old left hand pitcher going on my 7th season of playing professionally. I have played for 11 teams in eight different leagues spanning across five countries.

I love Arizona, I love to learn, and I love to teach. I find that sharing the knowledge and attitude I have gained from baseball with young players is very gratifying and I enjoy it. I love what I do and the work ethic I execute for myself and those that I instruct makes me confident in my abilities. At Isaac Hess Baseball we are relentless in bettering ourselves in all we do, there is no half speed.
