Tony Mansolino has plenty of experience as the youngest person in the room. He believes that will benefit him in his newest role.
The son of former major league coach Doug Masolino, the 38-year-old grew up in baseball clubhouses, beginning a climb that this week culminated in his first full-time coaching position in the majors. Mansolino will be the youngest member of Orioles manager Brandon Hyde’s 2021 coaching staff as Baltimore’s new third base and infield coach.
“I think it allows me to relate to these guys a little bit in some ways,” Mansolino said on a video conference call Wednesday.
