Switch Pitcher
Hoagboon brings double punch to mound for Panthers
By JAMES A. ELLIS, The Leader-Herald, May 25, 2009
"I often start off a game left-handed and then switch about the fifth or sixth inning to my right," Hoagboon said. "When I do, I go out on the mound and start warming up with the opposite hand and I can hear it from the opposite dug out. They will yell out that there's a new pitcher on the mound. then they'll go, 'Oh, never mind, it is the same kid, just a different arm.' I just kind of laugh. I just always could throw like I was naturally left-handed since I was in Little League. I never felt awkward throwing, It just seemed natural."
