Greco, who pitched in the St. Louis Cardinals organization after college, was an intimidating presence to those hitters then, but his tutoring of Maple Hill’s Schultz and Columbia senior Ian Gaule in the years to follow has helped make them the pitchers they’ve become."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200676672998212929.post-10545895090881728982009-06-16T07:29:09.226-04:002009-06-16T07:29:09.226-04:00Could you actually point out where in the article ...Could you actually point out where in the article or when Joe Franchini has EVER taken credit for any players abilities? The character in the man was shown when he spent hundreds of hours away from his family to help any player who was interested in improving. <br />“It’s not one organization that deserves all the credit,” Franchini said. There are many people who can be credited with teaching the successful young men of Columbia and Maple Hill. Franchini's quote totally acknowledges that. Thank you to the volunteers of East Greenbush Castleton Little League, Sorensco Babe Ruth and East Greenbush Schodack Devilcats.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200676672998212929.post-11725916312685209622009-06-15T07:41:08.632-04:002009-06-15T07:41:08.632-04:00I was discussed to read the article this past week...I was discussed to read the article this past weekend, and the lies that were given by Mr. Franchini about his "leadership" and "coaching" being the reason why Mapil Hill and Columbia were where they were. I was especially discussed by the lies he stated that it was because of him that Ian Gaule and Jamie Schultz were the pitchers they were. Mr. Franchini spent very little time coaching these players, especially Ian Gaule, he did spend sometime with Jamie Schultz, but to take credit for their abilities, PLEASE. This shows the true character of this "man", and the reason why these players are playing as a team this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9200676672998212929.post-32540005816583350822009-06-12T07:49:54.021-04:002009-06-12T07:49:54.021-04:00You state that the SORENSCO basbeall organization ...You state that the SORENSCO basbeall organization vaulted Columbia and Maple Hill to state final fours. It should be noted that the real organization that lead the way for these teams is the Greenbush-Schodack Devilcats, the same team that won the 16U World Series a couple of years ago, and not SORENSCO. I hope that this is presented correctly in your article.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
