Easily the best moment of Tyler Nevin’s 2022 season came in an early July series in Baltimore. With the Los Angeles Angels in town, Tyler got to face off against his father Phil Nevin, the Angels’ interim manager. In the last game of the series, the two even exchanged lineup cards before the game. Baseball in many ways is a sport shared between father and son, and yet so rare are those moments shared at the MLB level—let alone a father getting to coach against his son.
The truth surrounding the rest of Tyler Nevin’s season was a little less inspiring.
