I would include Heather Tarr - U of W softball coach. Didn't she play Little League in D9? I think she counts.

Here are some *MLB current players and managers who played Little Leagues in Washington State.*
I have a LONG list of former MLB players from Washington State including Matt Tuiasosopo (Woodinville LL - D8) (now managing the Gwinett Braves - AAA team for the Atlanta Braves) - Just managed his 500th game this past week. In 2022 he was named a coach in for the Futures team at the 2022 All-Star Game (wish they waited a year to give him that - would be nice to have him here in 2023)
*Active MLB Players and Managers who played Little League in Washington State * SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS
- *Michael Conforto* – Redmond North (Wash.) LL – *2004 LLBWS* - District 9
ARIZONA DIAMONDBACKS
- *Corbin Carroll* – Magnolia LL (Seattle, Wash.)
COLORADO ROCKIES
- *Manager Bud Black* – Western Longview (Wash.) LL
SAN DIEGO PADRES
- *Blake Snell* – Richmond (Wash.) LL
Hope this helps

Hi All,
I sent out some press release for the Juniors State tournament being held in Dist 13 this year. Several of the press outlets have bit the bait… but one has a question I can’t answer and could use some help…and I figured with all the senile gray hair in this group (not necessarily referencing Toigo but if the shoe fits)… someone could remember any Little Leaguers from Washington State that went on to do something notable after their stint with Little League. The paper is trying to work an angle of “you might just see some up and comers at this tournament”… Anyone know of anyone from Washington State Little League at any level that went on to be MLB players? Hockey? Politicians? Business Leaders?
Is there someone in Williamsport to contact? The museum?
Thanks in Advance and sorry for “cracking wise”…
