That's when jeff miline decided it was time to take action and open rochester batting cages in pine island.
Next up, mitchell brown launched velocity baseball.
We wanted to see kids have an opportunity to train and have a place to go to continue to feed their passion for the game and so that was kind of the idea behind jeff opening up rochester batting cages and velocity baseball came a few years after that.
Brown ?

"* who spent seven years in the minor leagues ?

Brown says those pros expose athletes to training and teaching unheard of in small town america.
