Chris Burke is the owner of Chris Burke Baseball and is also the head of instruction.  Chris is a Louisville, Kentucky native who is a graduate of St. Xavier High School.  After graduating from St.X Chris went on to be a two time 1st team All-America at the University of Tennessee.  In 2000 he won a Gold Medal for the USA Baseball Collegiate Team at the World Baseball Games in Harlem, Holland.  In 2001, his Junior season, Chris was named the Consensus SEC player of the Year while leading the league in hits, homeruns, batting average, runs, extrabase hits and stolen bases.  Chris still holds 6 single season hitting records and 8 career hitting records at UT.  Also, in 2001 Chris was selected by the Houston Astros with the 10th pick of the 1st round in the MLB draft.  He spent 7 seasons in the Astro organization including parts of 4 seasons in the major leagues. He was twice named the starting second baseman in the MLB Futures All-Star Game, and was named the Astros #1 prospect by Baseball America in 2004.  His time in Houston was highlighted by an 18th inning walk off home run to beat the Atlanta Braves in the 2005 NLDS.  The home run ended the longest game in MLB playoff history and propelled the Astros into the NLCS.  Eventually the Astros would lose to the White Sox in the World Series marking the only time in Houston's history that they made it to the Fall Classic.  After being traded by the Astros to the Arizona Diamondbacks in the fall of 2007, Chris went on to play for three more seasons including stops with the Padres, Mariners, Braves, and Reds organizations.  He retired in 2010 and now resides full time in Louisville with his wife and 3 children. In addition to running Chris Burke Baseball, Chris is a College Baseball Analyst for ESPN.  He also is the director of instruction for InsidePitch Magazine, the director of coaching for eCoach Sports, a motivational speaker, the Life Coach for the University of Louisville Baseball Team, and the director of Instruction for the Ironmen Baseball Club and Viper Baseball Club.
