Remembering Bittiger: Philly’s Unsung Scout

Sad news for the baseball community—Jeff Bittiger, the former Phillies righty and longtime A’s scout, has passed away at 63 after a battle with cancer. While he might not have been a household name on the mound, Bittiger made a huge impact off the field, especially as the scout who discovered Andrew Bailey, the 2009 AL Rookie of the Year. His legacy lives on in the players he mentored and the teams he shaped. Anyone else remember his gritty days with the Phils? #Sports #Baseball #Phillies
