ABOUT SEAN CASEY

Sean Casey, a 12-year Major League first baseman, is an analyst appearing across MLB Network's programming. A three-time National League All-Star during his Reds tenure, Casey batted .302 with 130 home runs and 735 RBI in his career. Casey played for the Indians (1997), Reds (1998-2005), Pirates (2006), Tigers (2006-07) and Red Sox (2008). Casey finished in the top 10 in National League batting average three times in his career and had six seasons in which he hit better than .300. After being traded to the Tigers in 2006, he went on to hit .529 with 2 home runs in the World Series.


The University of Richmond graduate received the Ernie Lombardi Award in 2004 as the Reds' most valuable player, and in June 2012, Casey was inducted into the Reds Hall of Fame. Known as "The Mayor," Casey, one of baseball's most outgoing and likeable players, was voted "Friendliest Player in Baseball" by his fellow players in a May 2007 Sports Illustrated poll. Casey is a regular at the MLB Network working as a commentator and studio analyst, and he has received many honors for his service to the community, including the Hutch Award in 1999.


Today, Casey is invested in supporting children and adults with special needs through his foundation Casey's Clubhouse and the Miracle League of the South Hills. Located in his backyard of Upper St. Clair, PA, he spearheaded the initiative to raise over $2.5 million to build the Miracle League of the South Hills field and playground where children of all abilities can be a part of a team and play the great game of baseball. Currently, Sean and his team have raised another $1 million to help with facility improvements and build a concession stand where he will start a job training program, teaching life skills in customer service, custodial work, cashier/counting money, and more. The program will hire the Miracle League athletes, some for their first ever paying job!


You will often find Sean Casey during the Miracle League of the South Hills season announcing games, pitching to the kids, or showing off his lefty swing.
