league pitching coach and coordinator. He served the organization faithfully for 19 seasons
before succumbing to cancer on Nov. 19, 2003. Gershberg’s playing career included stints with
the Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants in the 1950’s. He had a passion for the game and
dedicated his life to working with and developing quality pitchers including: John Franco, Chuck
