Meet Louis Boyd, Minor League Field Coordinator for the Seattle Mariners farm system

He’s currently one of the best stories in Canadian baseball but if you asked someone to tell you who Louis Boyd is, even the most ardent fan would be hard-pressed to come up with an answer.

When you are the 723rd-overall pick, making the majors is a distant dream. As an older player on three teams in his first professional season, Boyd realised how much he enjoyed being a mentor to some of the younger players and started to get the coaching bug. Boyd was a sponge around Hocking, learning how to be organized, how to be prepared and how to interact with players in a successful way.

Boyd managed the AquaSox for a couple of seasons and actually had a 20-year-old Julio Rodriguez for a month during the 2021 campaign. “I need to make sure that good things are happening on the field with our players and our staff and do my best to help assist and support the people in our organization so that our players are growing, our staff members are growing, and we’re upholding the standards of the Seattle Mariners and who we want to be,” he said.
