Welcome to TLH Baseball
TJ Hose has had a tremendous impact on my baseball career. I have been working with TJ since I was 13 years old and every year has only gotten better. The relationship we have is like no other and I can’t be more grateful having him as my pitching coach and mentor. He is the reason I have been able to make it this far in my career and whatever I need whether it’s with baseball or life in general he’s always there for me. If you’re looking to take your talent to the next level on the mound TJ Hose is the man!
Super thankful and appreciative for all that you’ve done for me over my high school years and being my go to guy, you’ve impacted truthfully a ton in my life in such a positive way as a person, and more importantly, outside of baseball.
TJ Hose has had a tremendous impact on my career. When I first started seeing him for lessons, I was extremely lost physically and mentally. I felt frustrated and overwhelmed. TJ immediately gave me some tips and cues to help fix my mechanics, as well as suggestions to help me handle and manage the mental aspect of the game. By working with TJ, my confidence increased, my command improved, and I got back on track.
Coach Hose is a unique leader inside of amateur baseball. He is as good of a developer of talent as anybody I have been around.
His care and commitment level have allowed him to produce the highest level talent while building strong relationships with players and coaches.
He accurately communicates to decision makers at the collegiate and pro levels and always has his players’ best interest at heart.
TJ started as a peer inside of baseball and has become a friend. I look forward to seeing his successes in the future.
TJ Hose has a gift! I tell people all the time that I have been around baseball all my life, but TJ sees things that I don’t see. Once he points it out, I realize that makes perfect sense. The way he is able to communicate with pitchers, the kids just get it. Our pitchers don’t have to wait until the game is over or until the inning is over, with the way he communicates, our guys are able to make adjustments before the next pitch. No matter the age or ability level, TJ makes them better. Our players love playing for TJ and will literally run through the wall for him.
As one of the best pitching minds in the country, college coaches not only trust his judgement but seek his advice themselves. He is one of the most well-connected coaches for any travel ball organization in the country and with the program’s mission of helping each of their players and families through the entire recruiting process, TJ is most helpful in steering young men in the right direction.
Another separator for TJ, as a positive male role model, he has been very instrumental for turning lives around. There are quite a few players that have gone on to play at a high level that credit TJ for putting them in position to be successful.
Coach TJ Hose
I’d proudly recommend Coach TJ for any youth, high school, college, or professional pitcher with a goal to develop into the best version of themselves.
I’m Steve Johnson, Cameron Johnson’s dad. Cameron, an LSU commit, was recently a 2023 MLB draft pick of the St. Louis Cardinals as a left-handed pitcher. Cameron has worked with Coach TJ since he was 14yrs old. Coach TJ is part of the family; a friend, mentor, and a very talented professional pitching coach of extremely high character and skill who we believe in and trust implicitly.
He’s also known by many as the Pitching Whisperer.
Cameron has enjoyed tremendous success over the past four years thanks to his hard work and, just as important, Coach TJ’s guidance, instruction, and friendship. Through Coach TJ’s positivity, humor, realistic and direct dialogue, honesty, and caring ways, Cameron has blossomed into a dominant pitcher, ranked #1 high school pitcher in the country by some. Coach TJ’s style and ease in communicating with his pitchers, young and old, are unique and very effective, producing amazing results (e.g., college commitments, professional contracts, high school scholarships, college scholarships, etc.).
Coach TJ has excelled at teaching Cameron and so many other pitchers the rules and strategies of pitching, the mechanics and mental approach to pitching, and has propelled the careers of budding professional pitchers now in minor league baseball.
Compared to other pitching coaches, who often use a cookie-cutter approach, Coach TJ always seems to study each pitcher’s movements, habits, routines, mechanics, mental condition, limitations, and capacity for improvement before making small, calculated adjustments suited specifically for each pitcher.
Cam is now enrolled at LSU and is preparing for his first college season pitching in the SEC conference. He and I traveled over 80 miles one way to see Coach TJ. I’m gladly doing it all over again with my now 13-yr old son, Carter! There’s no one else I’d prefer for my sons…it’s always Coach TJ!
Simply put, I would be lost in Maryland if not for TJ Hose. His connections in the scouting and coaching community is among the best and most trusted. His ability to not only put his kids first in advantageous situations suited to their playing goals, but to also develop, has been evident every year. He is without question one of the premier pitching coaches in the state and has meant so much to so many kids. I’m lucky to have him as an associate scout and friend.
I thought I would message you and just say thank you for all the help throughout my recruiting process and making me the pitcher I am today. I really appreciate you helping me make my dream come true. Best of luck in the future.
TJ Hose has been more than just a pitching coach to me. We have a great relationship and I know I can talk to him whenever if I need anything. I met him at a young age trying to make it to the next level. Then just after a couple months of seeing TJ he turned me into a true pitcher, and gave me that chance to go to the next level. If I had any questions about baseball, TJ always had an answer for me. If it wasn’t for TJ I wouldn’t even be close to the pitcher I am today.
Coach TJ has been more than an essential piece in my baseball development. I met him as a new pitcher who didn’t understand the mechanics or the mental side of the game at all. Anytime I had a question, whether it was during a lesson or not, he was always there to answer no matter what it was about. Also, he’s been more than just a coach, he’s family. Anything you needed to talk about he was there to talk about it with you. Honestly, I wouldn’t even be close to where I am without TJ.
TJ Hose is more than just a pitching Coach, he is a life Coach for the guys he works with. His care level is so high and he is able to help pitchers improve their mental game, their day to day habits and their pitching deliveries. This guy is a one stop shop for personal and pitching development. I have had dozens of pitchers work with TJ over the last 5 years and every one has gotten better! There is no one I trust more to work with my players.
TJ Hose has a gift for simplifying pitching with young players. Spin and movement immediately improved for Myles once connecting with TJ. Additionally, TJ sincerely cares about the development and well being of his guys. He makes it a point to watch game performances on-line or in person and follows up with instructional affirmations and critiques. Always checking on the mental and physical side of things, TJ has been an asset to have on our team far beyond pitching lessons.
