After coming up through WhiteSox ACE program, Blake Hickman shifts to coaching.
When he finished up the 2018 season at high Class A Winston-Salem, Blake Hickman thought his days in the White Sox's organization were over.
After going through the ACE program, Hickman got a college scholarship and pitched at Iowa before the Sox selected him in the seventh round of the 2015 draft."Coming from where I come from, I'm very happy that I had people that supported me," Hickman said."If it wasn't for them, who knows where I'd be today. The support system that I had ... I just wanted to do something with my life.
by signing up you agree to our terms of service Hickman didn't make it to the White Sox as a player, so now he's focused on the coaching side and he can't wait to get started with Kannapolis.
"We feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to bring him aboard. We know that he's going to pour into our players and we look forward to helping him grow as an instructor."
