A-Train Anthony Bernard by Emma Miller

 

     Anthony Bernard is a senior at Bay City Central. Bernard is a four year varsity athlete, he has been playing baseball for the last 13 years. Previously, Bernard has played at South West Little League, Bay County Pony League, and numerous travel teams since the age of nine. Bernard has played a variety of different positions over the past 13 years. Randy Bernard, (Bernard’s dad) has taught him just about everything he knows.

     Bernard’s favorite and current positions are pitcher and third base. Bernard’s velocity is consistently in the mid 80’s. This offseason, Bernard feels as though his hitting has improved immensely. He is excited to compete for a district championship with his teammates this season.

     During the interview, Bernard mentioned his favorite baseball memory while playing for Central. It was during sophomore year baseball, when Central beat Western High School in pre-districts on a walk off. Bernard said, “I’m excited and sad for the  final season of high school baseball with all of the boys.” As the baseball team is eager for the 2019 season to start, to prepare for the upcoming season the team has been conditioning and training since December.

     Long term, Bernard is still undecided on his career plans, however, he is keeping his options open as he hopes to play college baseball wherever life takes him. Nick Birdsall one of Bernard’s teammates and close friend said, “Through these four years we’ve both put in a lot of hard work and I’m excited to see it all pay off this season.“
