Seems like no one or nothing can stop someone from being close to baseball. Such is the case of longtime baseball Coach Vince Misuraca. Having been a mentor to the kids for almost five decades of his life, Coach V still doesn’t have any plans to retire anytime soon. Many hurdles came his way to stop him, but the baseball enthusiast in him did not let him give up.

Even now, despite having multiple health issues, baseball veteran Misuraca is adamant about his duties as a coach. And thus, his commitment and love for the game are winning hearts.

 Baseball has a star among them!

What one might consider an ordinary night at the Athletics Boys Club Ballpark in St. Ann, Missouri, was a pretty special one for Coach Vince Misuraca. Having advice for everybody, with experience in coaching over 100 teams and 2000 players, the 72-year-old coach took his team to win yet again.

However, coaching is not the only thing that Coach V does. If any of his students are having issues with fees, he’d be the first person to help them out with the same. Or if any of his young players is in requirement of cleats or mitts, he’d be the person responsible for it. 

Coach V does all this after going through two strokes, one of which happened 18 months ago and left him in pretty bad shape. Aside from this, he suffers from high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes, and three back operations. Despite all this, when the talk of getting retired comes anywhere near him, he’d get seen saying, “Once a coach, always a coach”. 

He loves it, so he does it!

After going through his second stroke, ideally, it was not a good thing for Coach V to continue. However, when asked how his doctor felt about him still coaching, he simply said, “He didn’t say it was a bad one, so….”

From the looks of it, teaching kids how to play ball and trying to be a good influence on all those kids coming to learn from him is all the oxygen that he needs. After doing this job for almost five decades, one might wonder how long he will continue to coach. However, the answer to this question is, “Forever”. 

When another coach from the area got asked about Coach V, he said, “He loves it. I think he can’t stop. It’s just in his blood, helping kids.” Even his colleagues know that whatever may come his way, Coach V isn’t going to stop.
