ChicagoNow profile of Mike Recchia ChicagoNow recently profiled Mike Recchia, a 2007 Shepard graduate and the 15th-ranked prospect in the Chicago White Sox farm system. As a kid, Mike actually worked at U.S. Cellular Field. He writes about that, as well as his experiences with the New York Yankee and Baltimore Oriole farm systems. And then theres this: After his release by the Yankees in 2012, he could have quit but showed up at Shepard. The next day I got back to the gym at my high school and worked out, thanks to my longtime helpful coaches, Frank DiFoggio and Jim Benes, who I work with to this day. They helped me along the way, telling me to keep working. I couldnt give up – I’m an athlete and a dedicated one. I worked even harder, some workouts causing physical illness, he writes in the story.
