MLB: Family First! Dante Bichette resigned from Azulejos so he could work with his son, Bo

With the MLB lockdown preventing team employees from interacting with players, Dante Bichette put his relationship with his son Bo Bichette in the first place by resigning his position with the Toronto Blue Jays. Dante was a coach-advisor to the Canadians.

The Blue Jays shortstop explained the decision in an interview with Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker by saying that his father wanted to work with him:

Yes, the father-son relationship comes first, so my dad quit that job so he could work with me and not affect anything. So we’ll see what happens in the future. But yes, for now. It is taken. You know, he wants to be with me as my teammate.”

As the players were unable to work with their clubs during the lockout, Bichette he has been training in a batting cage that his father put together and also has a baseball field next to his parents’ house and his high school.

I am a fan of the King of Sports, especially the Boston Red Sox in MLB and all Mexican baseball in general. This profession has given me the opportunity to cover major events such as the Caribbean Series, LMB All Star, LMP (uninterruptedly since 2009), signatures of important players. I had the chance to attend the 2013 World Classic in Arizona, USA, although as a fan. Apart from this beautiful sport, I love basketball, where I have also narrated games and even an NBA friendly 10 years ago, but I have baseball in my veins. Degree in Communication Sciences from the Autonomous University of Sinaloa (UAS) , from which I graduated in 2011. I was born in Mazatlán, Sinaloa and started in the world of sports journalism in 2004 in the newspaper El Sol de Mazatlán, where I was a baseball columnist and a reporter at the same time. In January 2009 I arrived at El Debate as a journalist reporter and it was almost six years (in the first stage), until in November 2014 I emigrated to the radio providing my services at Línea Directa-Grupo RSN. My cycle there ended in July 2019 and a few days later, El Debate gave me another opportunity to work and opened the doors for me again. This is how I came to Al Bat, where I have been since 2019 as a web journalist.
