 21-year-old Gerangelo Saintja makes history as the first ambidextrous pitcher taken in round one of the MLB draft. Born in the Netherlands, then moved to Curaçao. Both of Saintja's parents influenced his pursuit of baseball. I would say my mom and my dad is like everything to me. Especially they teach me the way to play baseball. My mom plays softball, my dad plays baseball. And they both know about the game.
