John Barnes

Current Professional Player

As director of West Coast Baseball Camps, I want to teach your children things about baseball that I have learned in 24 years of playing the game. In 1996, I was drafted by the Boston Red Sox. Since then, I have played at every level in professional baseball. I have played with numerous teams including: Red Sox, Twins, Rockies, Dodgers, Pirates, and the Braves.

In 2000, I was a AAA batting champion and hit .365 that year. Just last year though, I found a new love for the game as a "Knuckle Ball" pitcher. Now, I am back with the Boston Red Sox in the minor leagues. These experiences have allowed me to become extremely knowledgeable in the areas of batting, pitching, fielding, and base-running. Let me help develop your child's baseball skills.
