Iowa Cubs News Release
Iowa Cubs hitting coach Pat Listach has been selected as a coach for the 2004 Pacific Coast League All-Star Team.
The 2004 Triple-A All-Star Game will be held in Pawtucket, RI on July 14.
Listach is in his fourth season as the hitting coach for the Iowa Cubs and fifth season overall as a coach in the Chicago Cubs' system.
The Natchitoches, LA native served as the I-Cubs' manager during the second half of the 2002 season posting a 27-28 record down the stretch after taking over for Bruce Kimm, who was promoted to the parent club. He has also coached in the Arizona Fall League (2001) and Mexican Winter League (2002).
Listach was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 5th Round of the 1998 June Draft out of Arizona State University. He made a splash during his 1992 Major League debut season - earning AL Rookie of the Year honors as he hit .290 with 47 RBI and 54 stolen bases in 149 games. He was also named the AL's top rookie by Baseball America, The Sporting News, and Baseball Digest. The 36-year-old Listach spent parts of six more injury-plagued seasons in the Majors, suiting up with the Brewers (1992-96) and Astros (97).
