His wife has a business here too so relocation was out of the question, but he still does some color work for ESPN when he is free. I can see him back in pro baseball though in a few years, would probably make a great batting coach. Opposing players used to come to him for advice and tips on hitting. He was one of the first to use video, now it is common practice.

Speaking of San Diego baseball, I hope Jerry Coleman makes it into the broadcasters wing this year. 32 years on the radio, not to mention his years with the Yankees and also serving as a fighter pilot in WWII and Korea.
