" I was extremely fortunate to get the opportunity ot work with KevinO'Brien in the Cape Cod League. He taught me the fundamentals of hittingand helped me to correct all the flaws in my swing. I have used the sameswing ever since then with more success than I ever imagined.""During my time with the Yankees and Reds, I've worked with some of thebest hitting instructors in the game--Lous Pinella , Chris Chambliss, TonyPerez, Davey Johnson and others. I consider Kevin to be as fine a hittinginstructor as any I've worked with. He should be coaching at the MajorLeague level."
