The Athletics announced today the passing of longtime scout Will Schock. He was 61. Schock had been a part of the organization since getting drafted by the team in 1987. General manager Did Forst released a statement about Schock’s passing.
“Will was a beloved part of the A’s organization for the better part of the last four decades. After being drafted by and pitching for the A’s for five years, he dedicated his life to scouting and made a lasting impact on both our amateur and pro staffs. His easygoing nature always made him a joy to be around, and his passion for the game and its players made every conversation with him an opportunity to learn from his years in the game.
We were lucky to he him as a teammate and friend. Our thoughts are with his family today, particularly his mother Trubee, his sister-in-law Jeanine, and his longtime partner Mary Coons.”
Schock, a right-handed pitcher, was initially drafted by the Giants out of high school in 1982. He instead chose to pitch in college at the University of California, Berkeley. Schock was taken in the 22nd round of the 1987 draft by the Athletics. He spent five seasons in the A’s system, topping out at Triple-A. Schock also briefly pitched in the Reds organization. He wrapped up his playing career with a respectable 3.95 ERA across 121 minor league appearances.
We at MLB Trade Rumors extend our condolences to Schock’s family, friends, and loved ones.
