Jake Elmore
Jake Elmore was a Major League Baseball (MLB) infielder from 2008 to 2019 for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Houston Astros, Cincinnati Reds, Tampa Bay Rays, Milwaukee Brewers, and Pittsburgh Pirates. Mr. Elmore made MLB history as one of nine players who played pitcher and catcher in the same game and he was the 14th player in MLB history to play all nine positions throughout a season. Mr. Elmore continues his career in professional baseball as a coach and mentor in the Philadelphia Phillies organization. "I have always loved sports as an exercise in what people can achieve as individuals and as a team when they focus on something with positivity and intensity. Baseball taught me, as it does with many other players, that anything is possible. What drew me to help found Anaesa was its ability to bring people together to focus on achieving greatly with each other. Our world needs more reasons and places to come together and work together with positivity and focus. Anaesa is such a place and reason."
