Congratulations to Tyler Beede (from our Living Room)!

Last night, roughly 120 people gathered at the Cressey household to cheer on Lawrence Academy pitcher and Cressey Performance Tyler Beede as he awaited the call of a lifetime. It came at the 21st overall pick by the Toronto Blue Jays. Check out the reaction at the big moment:
We are all tremendously proud of Tyler, and were thrilled to have him celebrate his big day at our house. Blue Jays fans should be psyched to not have not only a tremendous athlete and pitcher, but one of the most polite, hard-working, and humble kids I’ve ever had the privilege to coach. Congratulations to Tyler and his family!
Be sure to check back soon, as we’ll have some more names called in the final two days of the draft.

Eric,
Congrats to you Tyler and everyone else down at CP.
As a blue jay I am excited to have a potential pitcher to help us battle our AL east rivals like the red sox.
