Yankee Mark Teixeira Named Commissioner of Patch Baseball

The Yankee Gold Glove Award Winner will offer exclusive benefits to young athletes in Patch communities.

Patch has a new teammate: Yankee slugger Mark Teixeira.

The two-time All-Star and four-time Gold Glove Award winner will interact with Patch users by regularly responding to questions, sharing baseball tips, and posting exclusive videos. Teixeira will also offer young athletes advice on how to stay in shape and why healthful eating is so important for optimal performance.

“I live in a Patch town now and I keep tabs on my original hometown via the Patch site there, so I’ve seen the ways that Patch supports its communities,” commented Teixeira. “I’m excited to be a part of that by connecting with Patch users who have the same passion for baseball that I do. I’m eager to see what kinds of questions they toss my way!”
