Get to Know Jake ...
At what age did you start playing baseball and how did you get into baseball?
- I started playing tee ball at 5. My dad is a huge baseball fan so he's a big reason I started playing.
- I would say that I am more "old school". I love the battle between hitter and pitcher. I like to think that I use my brain when I pitch more than others.
- Hockey because I can't skate. To me skating seems impossible, so to be able to do it and play a sport at the same time would be cool.
- I played the saxophone for seven years. My dad is a musician, so growing up around music like I did made me want to play like him.
- I would say my dad is my biggest role model. Anytime I have to make a decision I think about what he would do. He's always been what I wanted to be, and he's the reason I am who I am.
- Roy Halladay was my favorite pitcher growing up. He's the reason I wear 34, and was a big reason that I fell in love with pitching.
