WHY RLP?
Why Red Light Performance Exists
Red Light Performance was built to provide clarity in a space crowded with information. Many athletes work hard. Few are guided toward what actually matters right now for their body, role, and season.
RLP exists to coach the individual — not the template — and to stay involved as that athlete grows.

What We Provide
Pitching development built for game speed
We provide individualized pitching instruction designed to help athletes prepare for real competition. Through structured routines, video analysis, and remote coaching, we help pitchers develop efficient mechanics, durability, and confidence that translate when the game is on the line. Our training is built for players who want more than quick fixes — athletes committed to long-term growth, consistency, and excellence.
A process built on preparation, purpose, and faith
Every pitcher is different, which is why our process focuses on building consistent routines tailored to each athlete’s strengths, needs, and stage of development. We emphasize intentional practice, accountability, and habits that hold up under pressure.
Our approach is planted in a Christ-centered foundation. When our worth is rooted in who God says we are, failure becomes something we experience — not something we become. That mindset allows athletes to play without hesitation, grow through adversity, and lead with character in all aspects of life.
“We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.”
Frequently Asked Questions & Answers
THIS IS HOW
WE PREPARE FOR VICTORY
I grew up in Columbus, Ohio, and my journey through professional baseball — including time with the Texas Rangers, Philadelphia Phillies, and Yokohama Baystars — shaped far more than how I pitch or coach. It shaped how I lead, serve, and walk alongside athletes.
​
My faith is central to everything I do. I believe preparation is a calling — being ready when it matters most, not only in competition, but in life. How you do anything is how you do everything, and the habits we build daily shape who we become.
​
I mentor pitchers from the youth level through elite professionals, helping them develop consistent routines tailored to their unique abilities.
Our work is grounded in faith, responsibility, and intentional growth, with the understanding that peace isn’t found in the absence of trouble, but in the presence of Jesus.
