Michael Ross Borzello (born August 14, 1970) is a Major League catching coach for the Chicago Cubs.

Early life

Borzello is the godson of former Major League manager Joe Torre, who was friends with Borzello's father.[1][2] His sister, Keri Borzello, was an NCAA Women's College World Series participant in 1994, as a catcher and first baseman for the Missouri Tigers. She later transferred to UCLA after a career ending rotator cuff injury.

Early in his life, a then-12-year-old Borzello had been serving as a batboy for the Atlanta Braves - at that time, managed by Torre - and found himself in the middle of a series of brawls between the Braves and the visiting San Diego Padres on August 12, 1984 at Atlanta–Fulton County Stadium. "When the fans started throwing stuff and jumped onto the field, I was like, 'OK, I gotta get out of here,' Borzello later said.[3]

Career

Borzello graduated from Taft High School in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, California, and California Lutheran University.[2]

He played as a catcher in Minor League Baseball in the farm system of the St. Louis Cardinals organization from 1991 through 1994, never getting above class A.[4]

Borzello participated in spring training "replacement player" games in 1995. In 1996, after his playing career ended, Torre offered him a job with the New York Yankees as a bullpen catcher and batting practice pitcher.[2] Borzello earned four World Series rings with the New York Yankees during the 1996, 1998, 1999, and 2000 seasons

When Torre left the Yankees for the Dodgers in 2007, he brought Borzello with him as catching instructor.[5] In 2011, he left the Dodgers to join the Cubs as a coach, working with the catchers and scouting.[6] He earned another World Series ring with the Cubs in the 2016 World Series.
