Tony Beasley - Texas Rangers coach on winning the World Series, trusting God in trials and representing Jesus in baseball
Tony Beasley is the third base coach of the Texas Rangers. Originally selected in the 19th round of the 1989 MLB Draft as a player, Beasley played 10 seasons of minor-league ball from 1989-1998, making two Carolina League All-Star teams, but he never made it to the major leagues.
After retiring from playing, Beasley went into coaching and achieved his MLB dream by becoming a coach with the Washington Nationals under manager Frank Robinson. After spending four seasons in Washington, Beasley moved to the Pirates organization. In 2015, he was named to his current role with the Rangers. In February 2016, Beasley was diagnosed with rectal cancer, forcing him to miss the start of the 2016 season. He was declared cancer-free in December 2016.
Today on the podcast, we talk to Tony Beasley about being a 2023 World Series champion, praying for God to be glorified, representing Jesus in baseball and trusting God in the midst of trials.
